Yema Balls

Another sweets craving, encouraged me to cook this one.

I remember when I was a kid, I had made some money selling these candies.

I had adapted the recipe from Panlasang Pinoy's Website, you can check here.

Ingredients:

3 Tbsp Unsalted Butter

1 Can (14 ounces) condensed milk

3 Egg Yolks

3 Tbsp Almond, chopped

Instructions:

Place the butter in a heated saucepan and allow to melt.

Stir-in the condensed milk and allow to cook for 3 minutes.

Add the egg yolks then continue stirring for 2 minutes.

Set the heat to medium and put-in the chopped peanuts then stir until the mixture becomes thick (about 15 to 20 minutes).

Adjust heat to low when texture is about to be achieved.

Turn-off the heat and allow the mixture to cool down.

When the temperature of the mixture is tolerable, scoop a spoonful then roll with your hands to form a sphere (ball shape).

Transfer to a serving dish and dress it up. If you have paper cups for the macaroons, you can also use those.

Bon Appetit!
