Today we were at my cousin's place when my son suddenly had cravings for sweet buns. I remember i used to eat Beh Teh Sor with my Ah Ma (granny) when i was in Singapore. I like to break them into halves and eat the sweet paste first then eat the external crust. Hehe! I chanced upon Crazy Honey Dew blog months ago and thus decided to make these for my boy...he's hooked on them!
