Ingredients
- 4 cups carabao’s milk or fresh cow's milk
- ½-3/4 cup powdered milk -or more depending on how firm you want them to be
- 6 tablespoons caster sugar
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Caster sugar for rolling
FOR WRAPPING
- 40 pieces 2x3-inch white paper
- 40 pieces 3x5-inch tissue or Japanese paper
Instructions
- In a deep skillet, pour fresh milk. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Let it simmer for 15 minutes while stirring regularly.
- Add sugar and stir until completely dissolved. Stir the mixture gently and constantly with a wooden spoon scraping the bottom to prevent lumps from forming and burning.
- Continue to cook until mixture is greatly reduced and forms a thick paste. Turn off the heat and add the butter and mix. (Remove skillet from stove)
- Add the powdered milk to the mixture and mix until a sticky dough forms. Transfer milk dough to a plate or bowl and let it cool down completely.
- Roll the milk dough into a cylinder and cut into four equal portions. Take a portion and roll it into a thinner log. Then cut the log into 10 equal pieces. Roll each piece to about 1 ½-inch long.
- Roll each piece in caster sugar coating it completely.
- Wrap a small white paper around a piece of pastillas placing it in the middle, with both ends open. Then wrap both in a tissue paper. Push the excess tissue paper at the ends inwards to close the holes.
