me and my sister are halfway through, but we added 21 grams instead of 7 grams of yeast. we realized this when we finished mixing and started the inflating process. what should we do?
Hey, Maangchi! I’ve been following your videos for months, but this is the first time I tried one of your recipes! The 꽈배기 were delicious and because of the low sugar content my family was also pleased ^_^
Thank you so much for the lovely recipe <3

Dear Maangchi,
I made kkwabaegi this morning after many times just look at the recipe over and over.
It tastes greaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat :D
I made half recipe, and made smaller balls, it turns into 9 little guys.
Thank you for sharing the recipe. You’re really cool. Thumbs up ^^

Mouthwatering!
I baked these @ 180°C or 350°F (approx.)
. Brushed with butter immediately as they came out of oven and then used Maangchi’s brown paper bag method to toss and coat!

Hey! Looking great! How long did you bake these for? :)
We made these last weekend and glazed them with the Krispy Kreme glaze instead of using cinnamon sugar. They were a BIG hit! Thanks for all that you do!
