With Cinco de Mayo today I thought I would come up with a recipe to celebrate it… Spiced Pear Apple Chocolate Empanadas w/ Sweet Cayenne Pepper Dusting.
Mexican desserts aren’t particularly sweet and can mix both savoury ingredients with sweet. With this in mind I chose to use a pear and apple filling, since they are so abundant at the moment here in Australia. Paired with a bittersweet chocolate pastry and sprinkled with a sugar and Cayenne pepper dusting and you have yourself a unique dessert that is the perfect accompaniment to the feast of flavours you would have had with your main meal.
Salud!
