While this was supposed to be the base recipe for more variations to come I decided to add a hint of ginger and a bit of chili to spice it up. The result is sweet, soft, chocolaty and simply delicious.

Another very simple recipe that uses the caramelized condensed milk. The base recipe is solid though it would benefit from some additional flavor kicks to be outstanding.

Caramelized Condensed Milk

Condensed milk was bad tasting milk that my grand parents would pour into their coffee. I was wrong. Self made caramelized condensed milk has nothing to do with that kind of milk. Its sweet and delicious, think melted butterscotch. Its an amazing base ingredient for a lot of sweets and desserts and I will use this in several desserts in the near future.

One of my favorite pastries during autumn and christmas time. The dough recipe is super simple, though the process is not that easy to get right. If you want to prepare this for a special occasion, rather try it a few days in advance just to be sure.
