Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Sprinkle 1½ cups (300 G) sugar onto a clean surface, about 5 inches larger all around than the sheet of puff pastry.
• Place the puff pastry over the sugar and sprinkle the remaining 1½ cups (300 G) sugar on top.
• Gently press the sugar into the dough, then use a rolling pin to roll out the pastry to a 24 x 14-inch rectangle.
• Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut the pastry into 9 equal squares.
• Add the cream cheese to a piping bag fitted with a ¾-inch round tip.
• Pipe the cream cheese diagonally onto the center of each pastry square.
• Bring one corner of the dough diagonally over the cream cheese to meet the opposite corner, then roll up into a log. Divide the pastelitos between the prepared baking sheets, making sure the seams are on the bottom so the pastelitos do not unroll during baking.
• Bake the pastelitos for 30-35 minutes, until golden brown and puffed. Remove from the oven and transfer to a plate to cool completely before serving.
• Enjoy!

PASTELES DE QUESO RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, sift together the flour, salt, baking powder, and sugar and whisk to combine.
• Add the corn oil and whisk until well combined.
• In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, lightly beat together the eggs. Add the milk.
• Gradually add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix until the dough begins to come together in a ball.
• Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes, until smooth.
• Place the dough in a floured bowl. Cover with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rest for 45 minutes, or until dough has nearly doubled in size.
• Roll the dough into about 25 smaller balls, or fewer if you prefer larger pasteles. Transfer to a baking sheet and cover with a kitchen towel so the dough balls don't dry out as you roll them out.
• Working 1 at a time, roll each dough ball out into ⅛-inch (3 mm) thick ovals. Use an inverted bowl to cut out circles about 4-5 inches (10-13 cm) in diameter. Discard the dough scraps.
• Add about a tablespoon of Oaxaca cheese to the center of each circle. Lightly wet the edge of the dough with water, then fold in half and seal using the repulgue technique or an empanada mold cutter.
• Fill a large pot with canola oil and heat to 360°F (182°C).
• Add several pasteles at a time to the hot oil and fry for about 5 minutes, or until crisp and golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
• Dust the hot pasteles with powdered sugar. Serve with api, if desired.
• Enjoy!
