Pinipig Polvoron (powdered sweet with rice crispies)

Assalaamu alaikum warahmatullaah,

Here’s another easy to make Filipino sweet I made tonight. Allegedly, invented at the time of American occupation in the Philippines to make use of the abundant powdered milk brought in by the Americans.

You may experiment with different flavours. Instead of rice crispies you may put crushed cookies to have the cookies and cream flavour , try crushed cashew nuts or just regular peanuts, chocolates etc..

This is perfect for dessert and kids would love it! Inshaa’Allaah you’ll like it.

 

WHAT YOU NEED:

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup white sugar

1 cup powdered milk

1 cup semi crushed rice crispies

1 cup melted butter

Moulder

Japanese paper or any candy wrapper

HOW TO PREPARE:

* Toast (not sure of the term) the all purpose flour in a pan and continue mixing it with a wooden spoon or spatula until brown

* In a bowl, mix the sugar, the powdered milk, the rice crispies and the melted butter then follow the toasted flour.

* Mix them altogether.

* Mould it.

* Wrap it.
