Ginger lime cochitos. A simple cookie-bread combo. So simple, the recipe took 3 attempts to fully develop. So tasty I ate 3 palm sized piggies. Once I start to make many, I won’t want to eat them again.

How amazing is it that my little food label Muñeca Mexicana Handcrafted Food is getting so much love from Kickstarter?
kickstarter:

Mmmm, homemade, slowly-evaporated goat milk caramel from Muñeca Mexicana Handcrafted Food. You can snatch up a jar for a mere ten bucks!
Serving suggestions include drizzling over ice cream or French toast, but we kind of just want to take a bath in it.

Mexican pastries require lard.  And occasionally they require a hammer.  How else does one break up those magical brown sugar cones known as piloncillo?  Boiled down sugar cane syrup tasting of caramel, and a slight metallic tang, this is about as pure and natural as sugar gets.  And lard?  Well, I would rather have a pure snow white block of rendered pork fat in front of me than any hydrogenated vegetable oil or even expensive French butter.  Combine flour, lard and piloncillo, make a tortilla sammich, bake.  Coyotas, the taste of my childhood and not found outside of the state of Sonora.  Why did it take me so long to make these?
