Mini Special Sapin-Sapin made extra yummy with macapuno, ube halaya, and sweetened jackfruit! In fun mini-size, this Filipino sticky rice cake is perfect for parties!
Welcome to day 3 of our holiday series! I hope you’re enjoying all the new recipes because there’s more coming your way in the next three weeks.
When I asked viewers on my Facebook page for Noche Buena ideas, one of the top answers was desserts or, more specifically, kakanin. Not surprising as we, Filipinos, do love our sweets.
So today, I am following the soft and chewy ube biko from yesterday with a special sapin-sapin. I do have a simple recipe already up on the blog. Still, I thought I’ll make a more party-worthy version by adding macapuno, ube halaya, and sweetened jackfruit to the divided batters as well as steaming the mixture in puto molds.
The mini layered sticky rice cakes turned out not only tasty and delicious but also super cute and festive!
