Dough

4 cups all-purpose flour 2 tbsp cane sugar 1 tsp sea salt

1 cup cold vegan butter

1 cup cold water

Halaya (ube jam)

In a large glass mixing bowl sift together the flour, sugar and salt.

Cut in the cold vegan butter. Using hands work in the butter until it is well-combined.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line two large cookie sheest with parchment paper. 

Remove dough from fridge and give it another knead. Roll dough out onto a floured surface. Cut dough into circles, about 4 inches across. Place circles on prepared baking sheet. 

Scoop one generous tablespoon of ube halaya on top of each circle. Lightly wet the edges of each circle with a touch of water. Fold dough over top of filling and squeeze the edges together. Using the back of a fork, press edges down to seal fully. (Or use an empanada press.)

Allow empanadas to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Yields; about 2 dozen empanadas.

Strawberry and Brie Empanadas!

Greetings, dear meows! We are right on the verge of summer here in SoCal and the abundance of fruit and vegetables can be seen everywhere! Especially when it comes to berries! It’s quite inspiring and I wanted to take advantage and make something sweet and savory. Prices at the markets are finally leveling out a bit and strawberries are being sold in bulk at great prices. So I opted to make a…

Another dessert recipe! 

We were invited to a friend’s for dinner and asked to bring dessert. The entrée was Mexican so I wanted to bring something in that vein. One of the diners is lactose intolerant so that threw out my tres leches idea.  Mike and Michaela bought me a set of empanada presses for Christmas, so I decided to do that.

We had bananas on hand, so I combined 4 mashed bananas, 2/3 cups chocolate chips, and 2/3 cups chopped walnuts for the filling.

I was really nervous about the dough. I don’t make dough! Mike is our baker and maker of all things dough. I asked him to read the recipe and give me tips (one was yes, I could use the KitchenAid and one was add the eggs last). And you know what? This came together really easily and really well!

I was so proud of myself when I rolled out the dough and it worked!

I used just a little less than a half cup of sugar. And I used four tablespoons of cold milk.

I stuffed each empanada with about 1/5 tablespoons of filling. When it was time to bake them, I did an egg wash and sprinkled them with turbinado sugar.

This yielded 21 medium-sized empanadas. (I didn’t have enough filling for all those, so I stuffed four of them with cranberry goat cheese. Those were also quite tasty.)

Next time, I would use slightly more filling. And I’d serve with ice cream or whipped cream.

But I’ll definitely make these again!

Fit: Oh– [Laughs] In Purgatory?

Bagi: You lassoed me and you saved me! Like, I had 3 seconds left when I got inside the boat!

appreciation in the tag right now for badboyhalo, pomme, and richas admins for giving us an incredible live experience- I think it’s the best lore stream I’ve ever watched to be honest. I cried so hard. and be sure to give appreciation to dapper, empanada, and tallulah admins for the amazing buildup over the last few days leading up to this finale

[sp4mja]

One of the best moments of yesterday's stream was Fit singing his special lullaby to Empanada and Pac watching and falling in love all over again

[glowsticcc]

made designs for the new babies :333

[cellgatinbo]

pac tells empanada about his date with fit tomorrow, who is quite happy to hear it :D (and also how much closer he's been able to get with ramon :3)

[dozyrogue]

empanada has gotten extra protective over tubbo since she saw creation, almost every time she spends time with him she tells him how much she loves him and reminds him of how important he is.

Soooo true!!

Once again have to thank Niki for telling em that creation would never hurt her simply cuz tubbo made him.

But I also think the convo of him trying to give em on of his lives so she can have tw again freaked her out. she's like "I'm fine I don't want u to get hurt because of me" and he was like "naah your worth more" and em even brought up sunny and he didn't stop.

I always talk about how sunny sees right though tubbo but em also sees right though him. She sees how lonely he is and how prone to pushing people away he is and the suicidal ideation. So seeing it come back in full storm is probably a lot.

She also sees how the rest of the island treats him and sunny who always points it out.

She's probably hoping she can help him even a little bit. Trying to make sure that tubbo knows he has people on his side

(Excluding the original eggs out of this conversation) Out of the three new eggs, Empanada gives me oldest vibes, pepito gives off middle child vibes and Sunny is the youngest

[okaioh]

Em wants to find a Jellie cat to make a memorial for Jellie :(( <3

Mike: Everything gonna be fine. It's okay! Your siblings also lost the life once. So it means that we need to be more careful now, ok?

Empanada: [Nods]

Mike: I think we should do... Actually, the project- have you ever heard about Project Immortalyson?

Empanada: [Shakes her head]

Mike: After Richas lost his life like, a lot of months ago, we did a project called Project Immortalyson that we trained him, give him better items to endure any type of danger! So we should do that with all the Eggs, you know? Train you, give you better items, prepare you, and you know... It's gonna be great, you know? It's gonna be great.
