Biscochitos
Even as New Mexico’s official state cookie and an important Christmas tradition in Hispanic and Latin American cultures, biscochitos might not seem to have anything outlandish or fancy about them, at a glance — that is, until you take a bite. Full of dynamic flavor and a delicate texture that is so pleasant to eat, over and over again (they’re hard to resist), these anise-studded, orange-and-vanilla-scented bites are perfect to package as a gift, to leave out for guests to snack on or to serve alongside cajeta ice cream or a rich butterscotch pudding as part of an important holiday meal. You might also try them alongside your favorite celebration drink, like rompope, ponche or a simple hot chocolate.
