Pastillas de Leche

Pastillas de Leche literally means "milk piece" in english, they are milk candies that are very popular here in the Philippines, along with Polvorons. Almost every child here have eaten at least one of these. They are traditionally made with carabao milk [water buffalo] and sugar. But I made them the simpler way.

Peanut Butter and Jelly Cupcakes

 

I just recently tried a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and I am loving it. I keep making them during tea time, which by the way is anytime for me. I just love drinking tea and eating sandwiches and pastries at the same time. I read in Wikipedia that an average American would have eaten 2500 of this sandwich before graduating high school, and here I am, someone who haven't even tried it before college. But I am not American, so that might be the reason why I have only tried it now. I wonder why delicious things like this aren't popular worldwide.
