My version used frozen cooked ube from the Asian markets. I added rice flour, canned coconut milk and condensed milk to the mixture to thicken it.

When it's ready, the sweet flavors of ube combined with fragrant coconut define this luscious treat for dessert or a merienda snack. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/kalamay-ube/feed/ 3 13500 https://thequirinokitchen.com/langka-jackfruit-iced-candy/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/langka-jackfruit-iced-candy/#comments Sun, 21 Jul 2019 00:18:46 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=9861 These Langka-Jackfruit Iced Candy are classic Filipino frozen treats prepared in thin, long plastic bags.

Polvoron has a buttery-milky flavor and is like crumbled shortbread. My recipe has powdered milk, melted butter, flour and sugar.
