Love letters or Kueh Kapit(in Malay), is a very common type of cookies which you will get to see during Chinese New Year visitings.
In the olden days, love letters are cooked over charcoal stove; the egg and flour mixture are poured into a metal mould which are then peeled from it and quickly rolled and shape, the minute they are cooked.

These days, love letters electric maker became popular which ease the pain of having to squat in front of the charcoal stove the entire day of making them. However, the slight disadvantage of using it is the uneven tones and you gets rolls which are also thicker than made with traditional method. Nevertheless, we managed to make quite a few bottles of our satisfactory love letters with the electric maker! ^o*
