How to Make Pastillas de Leche

✅Ingredients

5 cups fresh milk (carabao or whole cow's milk)
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon lime or calamansi zest
2 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup full cream powdered milk

✅Instructions

In a wide, nonstick skillet over low heat, combine milk and 2/3 cup of the sugar, and stir until sugar is dissolved.

Cook, regularly stirring and scraping sides and bottom of the pan, for about 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until milk is reduced and mixture turns into a thin paste.

Add lime zest and stir to combine.

Add butter and powdered milk and stir until smooth and well combined.

Continue to cook for about 3 to 5 minutes or until the mixture begins to pull from sides of the pan and turns into a soft dough.

Transfer mixture into a lightly oiled plate and allow to cool to touch.

Divide mixture into about 40 portions and roll each portion into logs of about 1-inch long.

Roll pastillas in the remaining 1/3 cup sugar until fully coated.

Wrap individually in Japanese paper.
