How to make christmas pastillas

Was so busy to play with them today so i *commissioned* the two littles to make pastillas de leche while i am working on some write-ups.

The pastillas do not look perfect but they are surprisingly fun to eat. Milky and not too sweet ❤ and of course i had a lot to tidy up after they were done making their sweet, milky treat.

Christmas Pastillas de Leche

I think the 15 minute tidying up is well worth the solid hour of fun for them and writing for me 😄 i was watching them while they were doing they project and i get to see their happy faces while rolling milky dough on their hands. Haha happy mess to clean! 😉

For newbie mamas who would like to make colored pastillas de leche with their littles, here’s a simple procedure:

Pastillas de Leche Recipe

1/2 Cup Condensed Milk
1 to 2 Cups Skim or powdered milk (add gradually)
Favorite food coloring (gel or liquid)
Sugar
Separate bowls for each color you want to make.

Procedure:

In a bowl, pour condensed milk. Add one color and mix. Add just enough milk powder to form a sticky dough. Once you are able to form a ball, roll the balls in a mixture of powdered milk and sugar. Put in small chocolate liners or insert a pick 😍 serve!
