                           First you need to know this a Peruvian Desert  originated in ''Peru''
                           in the 1,700 when the spaniards brougth their cookie recipe and
                           Peru took it and remodified with Peruvian ingredients & wow!
                           Find your favorite Peruvian music, I think this is very Important
                           you need to use your 5 senses...somehow the Peruvian flavor is
                           born by this main ingredient.....enjoy....this was my
                           second time making them...remenber just be open minded and
                           and be happy and selfconfident that you can do it.
                     
                        1.- Beat until flufy 1 cup butter and 3/4 cup butter.
                        2.- Add and keep mixing :
                                      2 egg yolks (litgly mix)
                                     1 tablespoon vanilla
                                      2 teaspoon lemon rind
                        3.- In a separated bowl sift toguether:
                                     2   1/2 cup cornstarch
                                      1  2/3 cup flour
                                     1 pinch of salt
                                     1/4 teasp. Baking powder.
                         4.- Add the dry ingredients 1/2 cup & the time  ... mix....

                                if you have thin cookie or thick cookie a large one or small
                                you want to make them all the same thickness and only bake
                                them until yellow no brown or golden brown ...if you over cook
                                they wont melt in your mouth...soorryy...during this part I stay next
                                oven for my first batch and time it and watch and then I will use
                                 same temperature and time for the rest of my cookies..oufffff
                                Now with the challege out of the way...yummmm
                   
                          7.- have them cool off...and fill with condensed milk that have been
                                boil for 3 hours and cool off.

                                sprinckles stick spread the cool  condensed milk around the edges
