Yema with Multigrain Cracker


My daughter is known to have allergy for peanuts and I was looking at replacing nuts for this recipe. I had Vita-Weat 100% Natural wholegrain goodness - Cracker Multigrain in the pantry and used it instead of peanut. The grains from the cracker made such a big difference to the recipe and it tasted like it had some kind of nuts as well. By the way, 'yema' is one of the popular sweets when I was growing up. I even sell them at school!

You need:

2 -3 Tablespoons of Olive Oil
397 g Sweetened Condensed Milk
1  cup Crackers (crushed finely)
1 teaspoon of Vanilla
Caster sugar

- Heat oil in the pan, make sure it's not smoking hot
- Add milk and vanilla; keep stirring for 3 to 5 minutes or until the colour changes
- When milk has slightly thicken add the crackers
- Keep stirring
- Turn off the heat once it's really thick and leave it in the pan until it has cool down
- Shape into tiny balls and roll in the caster sugar 
- Put the shaped yema in a small size cupcake papers 
- Enjoy!
