Ingredients

Make It

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350° F. Mix yeast, water and sugar together; let it rest until it doubles in volume. Sift 4 1/4 cups flour and form a well; place melted butter, 3 eggs, 1 cup Abuelita Granulated Chocolate, cinnamon, evaporated milk and the yeast mixture into formed well. Mix all the ingredients, kneading in the grated Abuelita Chocolate until it forms a soft, smooth and elastic dough. Let it rest in a greased bowl covered with a damp cloth until it doubles in volume.

Step 2

Divide dough into 12 equal portions. Place into a cupcake or muffin pan. Brush with a little oil and cover with a damp cloth. Let rest for 15 minutes.

Step 3

For the paste, beat remaining 3/4 cup Abuelita Granulated Chocolate, shortening, softened butter, sweetened condensed milk, remaining cup of flour and baking powder. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Brush dough with remaining egg. Cut 12 pieces of the paste mixture and place them on the cupcakes. Bake for 25 minutes. Cool before serving. Decorate with tejocote paste and dolls.
