mexican tamales

Hi There! Nope, we don’t have that for our Christmas breakfast or day but the tamales picture you posted seems like yummy… Let me share our dessert recipe this Christmas.. it is Maja Blanca Filipino recipe… Ingredients * 1/2 cup cornstarch * 1/2 cup water * 1/2 cup sugar * 2 cups diluted coconut milk * 1 cup toasted sweetened flaked coconut, topping Directions Lightly grease an 8" square or round pan with vegetable oil and set aside. In a non-stick pan over medium heat, bring coconut milk and sugar to a gentle boil, blending well. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water throughly until smooth. Slowly add this mixture, stirring fast until thickened (about 2-4 minutes) and fully cooked. Make sure to stir continuously or it may scorch on the bottom. Transfer into the prepared pan and let cool until firmly set. Slice diagonally into serving pieces.Sprinkle toasted coconut topping on maja just before eating to retain the crunch. Happy Mylotting and Merry Christmas! Cheers!
