Vietnamese Desserts: bánh lưỡi mèo recipe
Although Cafe Vinh Long doesn't serve a lot of desserts at their restaurant, Vietnamese food includes a wide range of sweets. One of our favorite recipe is this simple bánh lưỡi mèo recipe.
Bánh lưỡi mèo means cat tongue - but don't worry, it's completely vegetarian! It is only called so because the cookie has a vague resemblance to the shape of a tongue.
The recipe simply calls for butter, flour, sugar, egg whites, salt, vanilla or coffee to taste.
