About Tortas chilena

Torta Chilena is a traditional Latin American dessert featuring layers of thin, flaky pastry and sweet, rich dulce de leche. Although its name suggests Chilean origin, it is most commonly associated with Central American countries like El Salvador and Guatemala. This indulgent treat is made by layering buttery pastry dough with generous spreads of creamy, caramelized milk, resulting in a dessert that's sweet, decadent, and satisfying. While its tasty components make it a popular choice for special occasions, Torta Chilena is high in sugar and fat, which means it should be enjoyed in moderation. It offers little in terms of nutritional benefits, though the occasional bite can easily complement a balanced diet. For a healthier twist, some variations include lower-sugar fillings or alternative flours to reduce calorie content.
