Príncipes/ princes (chilean treats)

Chilean cuisine has his roots in the fusion  of native peoples and Spanish food that has been transmitted orally from old notebooks and by relatives who pass from generation to generation.

To this must be added as I have told you that some recipes from countries like Germany and others become our own food like kuchen and strudel .

 The first recipes from colonial times and remain to this day as part of our food culture emerging in the convents.
Especially because we have abundance of fruits like peaches, apricots quinces chirimoyas strawberries  lúcumas were making the Chilean pastry history  like   millefeuille cake  alfajores. dulce de leche  and in that category would these princes. the dough is similar to other recipes like alfajores filled with dulce de leche and  with meringue on top.

This is about treats because you know also we have empanadas seafood stews fishes and corn puddings.
Ifr you want see other chilean recipes (like empanadas) see here.
 With this recipe I join the celebration of Independence Day of our country will be next week and the group of Blogs de recetas chilenos where you can see other Chilean delicious recipes.

Príncipes (dulces chilenos)

No me decidía que receta hacer porque ya he hecho empolvados alfajores lanchitas etc.

Y empanadas por supuesto.

Finalmente me decidí por los príncipes que nunca había hecho super ricos.
