Recipe of the Day!
"Pan de Mu**to" Cookies
Ingredients:
1 block of cream cheese (200g)
2/3 cup butter
7/8 cup (13 and 1/4 tbsp) powdered sugar
1 teaspoon orange essence
Zest of half a lemon
1 2/3 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/3 cup regular sugar
Instructions:
Add the cream cheese, butter, orange essence, and lemon zest to a bowl; beat until the mixture becomes creamy.
Add the powdered sugar, as well as the flour and baking powder. Beat again until incorporated; aim for a texture that doesn't stick to your hands and is easy to work with.
Form small balls weighing approximately 20g each; create a cross shape out of dough strips and place a small ball of dough in the center of the cross.
Leave a space of at least 2cm between each cookie, as they will puff up slightly. Bake for 30 minutes at 170°C; if you make smaller balls, reduce the baking time.
While they are fresh out of the oven and still hot, brush them with a little melted butter. Finally, sprinkle them with a mixture of regular sugar, brown sugar (muscovado), and cinnamon.
These quantities yield approximately 10 cookies weighing about 20g each.
Enjoy!
