Filipino Dessert Recipes Basic Polvoron #25

DISH IN DISH OUT - If we are still inside the Philippines, we used to visit Goldilocks to purchase several types of Polvoron flavor. In all of the varieties, I still such as the traditional polvoron flavor when compared with pinipig, strawberry, cookies and cream, and also the polvoron with cashew nuts.

Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (or cake flour)
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup powdered milk
- 1/2 cup melted butter

Directions
1. Toast flour in a skillet over moderate heat for 10 to 15 minutes or until light brown, stirring constantly. Add powdered milk (or infant formula, it works too!), toss for another 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.

2. If desired, transfer to a large bowl. Add in sugar and melted butter. Mix thoroughly until it has about the consistency of damp sand.

3. Use a round or oval polvoron molder and shape them into compact bite-size cakes.

4. Wrap them in tissue or Japanese paper.
