Sagot :

Ingredients:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour

- 1 cup toasted rice flour

- 1 cup powdered milk

- 1 cup granulated sugar

- 1 cup melted butter

- Optional: 1/2 cup crushed nuts (e.g., cashews, almonds) or raisins for added flavor

Instructions:

1. Toast the flour:

- Heat a pan over medium heat. Add the all-purpose flour and toast, stirring constantly, until it turns a light golden brown and smells nutty. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

2. Mix dry ingredients:

- In a large bowl, combine the toasted all-purpose flour, toasted rice flour, powdered milk, and granulated sugar. Mix well.

3. Add wet ingredients:

- Pour in the melted butter and mix until the ingredients are well combined. The mixture should be crumbly but hold together when pressed.

4. Add optional ingredients:

- If using, fold in crushed nuts or raisins.

5. Shape the polvorón:

- Using a polvorón mold or a small mold of your choice, press the mixture firmly into the mold to shape. If you don’t have a mold, you can also use your hands to shape the mixture into small, compact rounds or rectangles.

6. Cool and set:

- Gently tap the molds on a flat surface to release the polvorón. Place the molded cookies on a tray or plate and let them cool completely. They will firm up as they cool.

7. Store:

- Once cooled, store the polvorón in an airtight container. They can be enjoyed as a sweet treat or given as gifts.

Enjoy your homemade polvorón!
