1 1/2 cups fresh or
evaporated milk
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon butter
5 tablespoons full-cream
powdered milk
sugar for rolling
1 Combine milk and sugar in a saucepan; bring to a boil and stir constantly until it turns into a paste. Add butter and powdered milk. Mix thoroughly.
2 Take the pan off the heat and transfer mixture to a separate bowl. Set aside until pastillas are cool enough to touch but still warm. Divide pastillas into 20 pieces and roll into small cylinders.
3 Roll lightly in sugar. Wrap in paper by placing in the center of a square, rolling it into a cylinder, and tucking the ends into the roll.
Makes about 20 pastillas
