Mini cake with boiled condensed milk and nuts
Description
Sweet tooths will love these little pastry baskets. The dough is quite crumbly, condensed milk adds sweetness and tenderness, and nuts add texture. Use any nuts you like; lightly toasted nuts will give a richer flavour and aroma. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
