It has been raining the past two days. One of the best mirienda (snack) is broas can be taken with your favorite hot chocolate, coffee or tea. These broas were a gift from a friend from Bohol.
I grew up in Alaminos Laguna about a stone throw away where Cresen's Broas is made and sold by Maharlika highway-- it is the same highway where you can find Collete's going to San Pablo City. I love Cresen's broas because it is made just right, firm enough that it doesnt really crumble when you hold it but it is melt-in-you-mouth type of cookie. I've never tasted anything like it. The other broas are mostly very cruchy and is more like mamon tostado.
We dont really buy broas that often. We buy it specifically for pasalubong (travel gifts) if my cousins and aunts and uncles are visiting and going back to Manila, My lola Abeng will usually send them off with a can of Cresen's. I miss my lola Abeng.
