- Herb's Guava-Cheese Empanada Cookies
Feliz Navidad, Merry Christmas! Nothing is more fun during the Christmas holiday than making cookies with my girls. Cookies aren’t exactly healthy, but since they’re automatically portion-controlled by their size, it’s a great way to indulge sensibly.
Along with more classic cookie recipes, I also make this Herb Mesa Original: Guava and Cheese Empanada Cookies. Latins eat a pastry made with guava and cheese in a puff pastry this time of year, but using empanada skins keeps them smaller and lower-cal. Your friends and family will love this twist on tradition!
