Time 20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 can (8 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Original Crescent Rolls (8 Count)
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 bar Mexican chocolate, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup walnut, chopped
1/2 cup Mexican cajeta or dulce de leche

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface. Use a pastry brush or spoon to spread half of the melted butter on the dough.
  • Sprinkle the Mexican chocolate and chopped walnut over the buttered dough. Spread half the cajeta over the chocolate. Pull apart each dough triangle and roll the triangles up in the form of a horn, or cuernito, starting with the widest end down to the tip.
  • Arrange each stuffed cuernito on a baking sheet. Spread remaining butter over the top.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the dough is golden-brown. Remove from the oven and top with a dollop of remaining cajeta. Enjoy!

CAJETA (CARAMEL CANDY)



Cajeta (Caramel Candy) image

I was looking through an old Mexican cookbook I have and found this recipe. For those of you who have made Miss Annie's Chocolate Flan Cake without cajeta, please try it with. I have made it both ways and the cajeta is definitely richer. This is also called Leche Quemada (burnt milk), though, in fact, the milk is not burned, but cooked to a soft caramel. In addition to using for the cake, this can be spread on bread, biscuits or as a topping for ice cream.

2 quarts milk
3 cups sugar

  • In a saucepan, combine 1 quart of the milk with the sugar and cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until mixture turns golden.
  • In the remaining quart of milk, stir in the soda and place in another saucepan.
  • Add the cinnamon stick and bring to boil.
  • Discard the cinnamon and add the hot milk very gradually to the caramel mixture, stirring constantly.
