How to make Pastillas de Leche Recipe.

Pastillas de Leche Recipe. Pastillas de Leche is a Filipino delicacy, a bite-sized candy made from milk and sugar, a perfect dessert for parties and picnics. Pastillas is easy to make and originally made from fresh Carabao’s milk but you can always use the regular milk found in the local market.

Pastillas de Leche Ingredients:

3 cups powdered milk, sifted plus ¼cup extra for dusting
1 cup condensed milk
Lemon or orange extract, (optional)
½ cup granulated sugar, for coating
Wax paper or cellophane, for wrapping

Cooking Procedure:

Place sifted powdered milk in a big bowl and make a well in the center. Pour condensed milk and lemon or orange extract (if using flavor extract) in powdered milk. Using a spoon or spatula mix the milk from the center slowly outwards until incorporated and forms a soft dough. The texture should be similar to a sticky fondant.

To my fellow home cooks and home-bakers we should keep doing what we love and enjoy being creative in the kitchen. I also love taking photos of my food but, I’m not a good photographer, so I just hope and pray that my food will make you hungry, so you won’t notice my bad composition LOL. And lastly, please have mercy on my poor writing skills, English subject has always giving me a headache and as I compose this bio I can feel a migraine starts to kick in LOL.
