About Chilenitos
Chilenitos are a traditional Chilean pastry featuring rich, sweet flavors. They consist of crispy, golden-brown cookie layers sandwiched together with delicious dulce de leche, also called manjar. While the cookies are typically made with simple ingredients like flour, sugar, egg yolks, and butter, the dulce de leche adds a luscious creaminess. Chilenitos are a delightful treat with roots deeply tied to Chilean cuisine, often enjoyed during celebrations or family gatherings. While they’re known for their indulgent sweetness, they are high in sugar and saturated fats due to the caramel filling and buttery cookies. They offer little nutritional benefit aside from carbohydrates and are best enjoyed in moderation. For a healthier twist, recipes can incorporate whole-grain flour or lower-sugar fillings. Chilenitos are perfect for those seeking an authentic taste of Chile but should be considered a special treat rather than a regular snack.
