how many can this recipe make -thanks
May I know how do I add peanut butter filling to folded kuih kapit?
Hi Sharon, if you would like to add filling into the love letters, prepare the filling in a piping bag as this would allow you to spread the filling quickly. Once the kuih kapit is cooked, open the mould, pipe the filling accordingly and fold. Happy baking!
