In a medium-sized bowl, beat the egg yolk and pour in half of the heated condensed milk. Stir well until mixed thoroughly. Add the coconut cream and mix until you get a smooth mixture. Pour this combination into the saucepan and go on cooking. To forestall scorching, stir permanently and scrape the lowest and sides of the saucepan. Turn off the heat when the combination begins to thicken. Set aside for 5 minutes to cool. In a large mixing bowl, put the powdered milk, the egg-milk-coconut cream mix and the softened butter. Blend well until you have a smooth mixture. Use cling wrap to cover the combination and chill inside the refrigerator for about 45 minutes. combination will thicken after chilling, thus, development it easier to shape into balls. Put the white sugar in a shallow bowl. Form the combination into balls using two teaspoons. They will look irregular at this point. Drop the balls onto the white sugar and roll it slowly to coat the entire ball. Roll the sugar-coated balls slowly using your hands.

Filipino Recipes - Sans Rival Cake recipe - Pinoy Food

Whenever I hear the word Sans rival, I always remember my high school best friend who gave her crush the same underground name because it is her favorite cake. Dream a boy named Sans Rival... Can't help but giggle at the thought.

Sans rival is a cake that you would like to have every day, unless you are trying to slim down. It is creamy, tasty, sweet, with bits and pieces of cashew nuts that makes the cake even more delightfully delicious. I tried baking it myself using this formula that I got from no other than my best friend. Yes, the same one I mentioned earlier.

Filipino Recipes for a Delicious Dessert

Filipino food is a diverse style of cuisine, drawing both on its traditional Asian roots and the more modern Western influences. Filipino food often provides contrasting flavours, mixing the sweet with the salty, so we're going to take a look at a couple of recipes for desserts, Filipino style, to see if this even applies to their puddings!

First up is some simple ice cream, Filipino style:

Delicious

Mango Ice Cream

Ingredients

1.5 pounds of fresh mango pulp
7 ounces of sugar
3 tbsp of mango nectar
250ml cream

Start by processing the mango into a puree, and then add in the sugar and nectar, stirring the mixture until it's all dissolved. Whip the cream into a bowl into stiff peaks, mixing with the mango, and place in a tart mould, covered and placed in the freezer for a couple of hours.

Pour the mix into a bowl and whip it into a fine paste. Add to the mould, cover and freeze, then remove the ice cream 15 minutes before serving up.

Well, ice cream is all well and good, but for something more interesting, how about bibingka, a coconut rice dessert?

Ingredients

2 and 1/2 pounds of mochi rice
400ml coconut milk
1 pound of brown sugar
Banana leaves

Start off by cooking the rice in a pan as normal, and after 10-12 minutes add in the coconut milk and one and a quarter cups of brown sugar. Cook it over a medium flame, stirring constantly, for 20 minutes, until it thickens up.

Line a baking tray with the banana leaves and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Put the cooked rice in a large bowl, stirring the rice and spreading the brown sugar on and throughout the hot rice evenly.

Place the preparation in a deep dish to mould it, then cover with half a cup of the remaining coconut milk. Bake it for 20 minutes, and then place under the grill for 5 minutes. This will give you one large dessert, chop them into individual pieces, and you should get 4 or more servings.
