Love Letters are thin, crispy rolls made from a delicate batter of flour, eggs, coconut milk, and sugar, typically associated with Southeast Asian cuisine, particularly Malaysia and Singapore. These treats are often enjoyed as festive snacks during celebrations like Lunar New Year. The batter is poured onto a special mold, cooked, and then folded or rolled into shape while still warm. While Love Letters are rich in flavor, thanks to the coconut milk's creaminess and a hint of natural sweetness, they are a treat best enjoyed in moderation. They are low in fiber and high in sugar and carbohydrates, providing quick energy but lacking in substantial nutrients. However, compared to heavily processed snacks, Love Letters feature straightforward, natural ingredients. For a healthier twist, some recipes use less sugar or swap white flour for whole grain alternatives while maintaining their cherished crisp texture.
