Pastillas de Leche
Ingredients:
- 515 g (1 can) condensed milk
- 2 3/4 cups of powdered milk
- caster sugar
Method:
- In a bowl, mix condensed milk and powdered milk until well combined. (I asked Rachel to reserve half and i added strawberry paste to add flavor. The mixture got a bit too soft and so next time we should be adding some more powdered milk.)
- Spoon small amount onto greased (we used butter) hands and roll the mixture into a ball and shape into a cylinder afterwards.
- Roll onto caster sugar, just enough to cover the shaped pastillas.
- Wrap in paper or cellophane.
