Puerto Rican Christmas cookies with almond and guava flavors - an easy treat for any occasion!
Ingredients:
  • 0.5 cup white sugar
  • 0.5 cup butter
  • 0.5 cup shortening
  • 1 tablespoon almond extract
  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons colored sugar, or as desired
  • 2 tablespoons sprinkles, or as desired
  • 2 tablespoons guava paste, or as desired
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) to create the perfect cooking environment for your dish.
  • Cream together white sugar, butter, and shortening in a bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Stir in almond extract. Gradually add flour in batches, kneading the dough until well blended.
  • Shape dough into walnut-sized balls and arrange them on baking sheets 2 inches apart. Use a wooden spoon handle to create a well in each cookie, then fill them with colored sugar, sprinkles, and guava paste.
  • Bake until beautifully golden, about 16 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven.
