Yum Moments: Pastillas de Leche (Milk Candies)

Hey ladies! For the past couple of days, I have been craving for pastillas de leche but I find that some of those that are commercially available can be a little too sweet and I don't have a sweet tooth. So when my friend called who happens to be a chef, I asked him how to make one and he gladly gave me the instructions. I never thought it was that simple. Here are the pastillas I made.






The only 3 things you need:
- Condensed milk
- Powdered milk
- Sugar

What to do:
- Mix powdered milk and condensed milk together until it becomes thick like a dough. Then form into any shape you want. Roll the pieces onto the sugar then eat! :P

Tip: You can add grated cheese or parmesan for cheese flavor. :)

Happy Sunday! :P

  5. Pammy , they were banned for a while due to the melamine scare. But it's back in stores.
