YEMA

I have had so many requests to feature this recipe. I thought it would be difficult to make this, so I didn't venture to make it. But it turned out that it is an easy recipe. The only difficult part was finding the cellophane wrapping.

Ingredients:


1 cup condensed milk
5 egg yolks
1/2 cup mashed potatoes
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 tablespoon butter
syrup
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar


Procedure:

combine all the ingredients for the yema and cook until the mixture is thick.
set aside and cool.
roll into balls of about 1 inch in diameter.
Prepare the syrup: blend all the ingredients for the syrup.
Bring to a boil until syrup is caramel-colored.
insert a toothpick into the yema ball and dip into the syrup.
cool on greased baking pan.
