Mocha-Milk Jelly Mooncakes

These are mocha-milk jelly mooncakes with mock egg yolk. To tell the truth, these were not what I intended to make in the beginning. I have planned to make coffee-milk jelly mooncakes. However, I have ran out of coffee in my pantry. What was left in my pantry was a sachet of 3-in-1 coffee powder and another sachet of 2 gm instant coffee powder. It was quite likely that it would not be sufficient. So, I set aside some milo and turned them into mocha instead of coffee jelly mooncakes. I really love the taste of these mooncakes. You can feel a very strong mocha aroma when you have a bite. It taste heavenly!!! I paired these with pandan jelly mooncakes that I made once again and gave them out as gift. 

This is my recipe:-
