<\/p>\n
At Dulces La Ponderosa we bet on the flavor of tradition, therefore it could not be any other way than to start with the recipe for the ice cream of a lifetime.<\/p>\n
What do we need?<\/strong><\/p>\n Steps to follow<\/strong><\/p>\n We break the egg into a container, beat it, then add the sugar, the oil and continue mixing, add the lard and the ground almond<\/p>\n Once we have the homogeneous dough, we knead with our hands and add the sifted flour with the help of a strainer and knead again with our hands. Let the dough stand about 30 minutes<\/p>\n With the help of a rolling pin, roll out the dough and start making the shape that we like the most, if you want to get away from the traditional one, we recommend using molds of different shapes to give them a more fun look. <\/p>\n We place the mantecados on a baking tray, we paint them with beaten egg so that they are more golden, we pour dusted sugar and we place the pine nuts<\/p>\n With the oven preheated to 160 degrees, let it bake for 15 minutes, then take it out, cool and ready.<\/p>\n What do we need?<\/strong><\/p>\n We follow all the steps the same as for the traditional ice cream (except in the decoration if we want to change the pine nuts for an almond, or almond crocanti …), it is right in Step 2 where we have to integrate the large spoonful of cinnamon and then continue with the procedure.<\/p>\n For those with a sweet tooth, chocolate lovers can certainly not miss the chocolate ice cream on the table of Christmas sweets. It is really easy, the whole process is the same, only instead of cinnamon, we will use 20 grams of cocoa powder. Although it is true that in many recipes for all the mantecados they add, in this one almost yes, a teaspoon of cinnamon so that they take on the flavor, but that is already depending on your taste. <\/p>\n The mixture of citrus fruits such as lemon or orange with the sweet of the mantecado is also one of the classic bets. To make your homemade lemon butter, add 1\/2 tablespoon of lemon juice and zest of the peel to the base ingredients (flour, lard, icing sugar, ground almonds). Follow all the steps as is and add the new ingredients in step 2.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" For lovers of cuisine, especially pastry, those who do not mind spending hours inventing how to surprise with the star dish of this Christmas, stay away from the classic desserts, if you have reached the end of dinner, there where almost everyone arrives without hunger, surprise all your guests with some great mantecados made by…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":917,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_joinchat":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[762],"tags":[767,765,768,766,764,763],"class_list":["post-7133","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-christmas-recipes","tag-chocolate-ice-cream","tag-cinnamon-shortbreads","tag-homemade-ice-cream","tag-lemon-shortbread","tag-shortbread-recipes","tag-sweets-la-ponderosa"],"yoast_head":"\n\n
