Ensaymada

I was talking to a friend about baking..and we got on the topic of how we like to bake, but we can't eat it all by ourselves..so we decided to make two different things and share. Great idea! What did we decide on? Ode to the Philippines: Ensaymada and sans rival! As you can see, I choose to make ensaymada. It was interesting...kinda like bread dough, but more fluid and sticky like a thick cake batter. At first I thought I made it wrong, but as it baked and the warm smell filled the kitchen..excitedly I peeked and it was rising nicely. They turned out pillowy soft... Melt in your mouth....mmmmm I can't wait to taste my friend's sans rival :)
