Kue pukis

Kue pukis, often simply called pukis, is an Indonesian kue, or traditional snack, made from a wheat flour batter cooked in a special mold pan. It is commonly found in traditional markets in Indonesia. The pan resembles a muffin tin with rectangular basins, so the cakes come out in a half-moon or boat shape, and the mold is similar to a waffle mold. The batter combines wheat flour, water, yeast, eggs, sugar, thick coconut milk and salt, with oil, butter or margarine used to grease the mold. The cakes may be topped with chocolate sprinkles, peanut bits, grated cheddar cheese or fermented cassava tapai. Its taste is closest to kue cubit, Dutch poffertjes and Japanese dorayaki, and it is often confused with the similar kue pancong and kue rangi.
