"SLC26-W5 | Alfajores"

Greetings teacher's and students!

I warmly welcome you all to the week 5 of steemit learning challenge season 26 it's a pleasure to participate in this course and am delighted to present my practical and theory part of this week assignment.

1 - Make your own Alfajores, they can be filled or unfilled (include ingredients, quantities and step by step instructions)

Ingredients	measurements
Cornstarch	30grams
All purpose flour	50 grams
Butter	20 grams
Sugar	3 teaspoon
Ground cinnamon	1 teaspoon
Egg	1

Started with whisking my butter and sugar for a while then go in with the egg and whisked till it becomes watery I set that aside.

After I had finished whisking the batter, egg and sugar in a bowl I mixed up the dried ingredients, poured in the cornstarch, flour, ground cinnamon and vanilla essence together mixed it up .

I seaved the flour into the batter mixture and form a dough, rolled it up in a nylon bag to achieve a smoother texture then I let it rest in the fridge for an hour.

After an hour i brought it out use a glass to achieve this round shape then I baked them for 20 minutes after which my alfajores was ready.

final results with a name, tag and date

When you tried the alfajores, what was your experience like? Did you like them? Explain your answer in detail.

I love them so mush, the taste was heavenly it wasn't so soft also not so hard it was just perfect for each bite it has a bit of crunch feeling, I ate each bite with so nush joy as my first trial turned out so great, to be honest although I wanted a good result i was also not expecting it to turn out so great.

3 - What has been your favorite hands-on challenge?

For the past 4 weeks I happily participated even when some practical seem impossible for me because were i reside some ingredients are so hard to find and also a nursing mum who has other business to handle in one way or the other I always find a way not to miss out this wonderful opportunity, this class will help me make different dough at home which is cost effective, measure accurate quantity of ingredients.

In all the 5 weeks of learning all the dough I made was unique in their own taste I love them differently but because I hade to choose I will say I loved churros the most,

it was soft flavorful pairing with sauce made it a wonderful experience.

Am calling out to my 3 amazing friend @beevicsam @affy @chant to participate as well
