Polvorosas

Polvorosas are traditional Venezuelan and Colombian cookies. They are often made with flour, cornstarch, sugar, milk, and butter. The word stems from "pólvora," meaning particles that are reduced to one solid thing, in other words, dust. The cookies are known for having a crumble like texture, so they are broken down while being consumed. These cookies are a variation of the Spanish "polvorón," and were adopted by Colombians and Venezuelans during the Spanish colonization.
