Some call it pastillas but some call it pastillas de leche. It is a sweet delicacy that's well known in the provinces of Laguna and Bulacan. Milky, sweet and yummy candy that anyone couldn't resist to eat. My kids love pastillas so much especially if it's home-made and prepared by their super loving mom, of course it's me! Pastillas is a no-cook recipe, it is done by mixing all the ingredients and wrapping with cellophane or any other food wrapper.

Ingredients:

2 cups powdered milk, sifted
1 can (14 ounces) condensed milk
½ cup granulated sugar, sifted

procedure:
1. Place the condensed milk in a large mixing bowl.
2. Gradually fold-in the powdered milk. The texture of the mixture will be similar to dough once all the powdered milk is completely added.
3. Scoop some of the mixture and mold into cylinders.
4. Roll each molded cylindrical mixture on granulated sugar.
5. Wrap in paper or cellophane
6. Refrigerate then serve
