Pastimallows Recipe (Pastillas Covered Marshmallows)

Pastimallows is a type of dessert treat which is comprised of two main components: Pastillas de leche and jet puffed marshmallow. It is done by simply covering the marshmallow with flattened pastillas and rolling it over granulated white sugar. This is easy to prepare and it can be a good opportunity for the kids in the family to help because this does not involve  cooking.

I prepared this Christmas colored pastimallows because it is only a few more days before Christmas. This can be a good idea for those of you who were thinking of making something special with your kids. It can also be arranged in nice little boxes for you to give as presents to friends. In addition, these treats can help those who want to earn extra income during the season.

The nice thing about pastimallows aside from its ease of preparation is that you can always design it your way. In my case, I want it to look simple and Christmassy so I used red and green food color. You can do the same and even add extra components too.

One of the tricky steps when making pastimallows is the rolling of the pastillas. If your hands are dry, the mixture will easily stick on our palm. One way to prevent this from happening is to grease your palms with a bit of cooking oil.

I hope that you enjoy this simple recipe for pastillas covered marshmallows.
