1 cup flour
½ cup powdered milk
just under ½ cup melted butter
½ cup sugar
You will also need a way to mold them into shapes (typically a polvoron mold).
Toast flour in a pan on the stovetop for about 15 minutes, stirring constantly, until light brown. Transfer to bowl. Add powdered milk and toss for 3-4 minutes. Add sugar and butter and mix well.
Push batter into molds, press in with a spoon, then release. If the batter is too loose, add more melted butter.
Chill in the fridge until firm.
Wrap polvoron in cellophane (or, in Germany, I used Butterbrotpapier) - I wrap a piece around and twist the ends like candy wrappers. Store in fridge.
YOU MADE PHILIPPINE POLVORON???? THAT IS THE COOLEST THING EVER AND I'M SO PUMPED I'M WRITING ALL CAPS!
ReplyDeleteSrsly, Spanish polvoron sucks. In the Philippines you can buy polvoron molders,available on Amazon.
Hell yes, those things are crack. A friend brought some back from the Philippines to my old workplace and I was immediately in love. Then she brought back a bunch just for me and D the next time....and the time after that, she brought me the molds to make them myself. Which is great, because they are cheap and easy to make, but if you actually find them at an Asian shop they are super pricey!
