ALFAJORES

this delicacy originated from Spain then made its way to South America. Basically Alfajor means gingerbread. Its main ingedients are flour, honey, almonds and hazelnut but Agrentina and Uruguay have different versions of it. This post features the Argentinian version. the box contains 2 varieties: caramel filling with chocolate and one topped with meringue. i don't care what the label says but they are, as they say here, ricoooo!!!  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfajor
