    Mari, did you stretch out the discs to thin them out a bit? I had used the Goya brand a few years back and thought the dough was to thick. They weren't coning out flaky like our normal empanadillas. I got discouraged and didn't do them again. Those look delicious. Yummm.

    • @mariscookingpr
      @mariscookingpr  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes! I should have showed that part. You know, I find that the extra large discs are flakier!
