This is one of my favorite sweets at Christmas. I remember Marquesitas that I ate in my childhood every time I visited my grandparents at this time. My grandmother knew they drove me crazy and a box was always exclusively for me.
This year I saw the recipe on the blog of my friends at Speed Spoon and I couldn't resist preparing them. It is a simple recipe to make, in less than half an hour we have some delicious Christmas marquesas, with a presence better than the purchased ones.
My husband says that I have "embroidered" this sweet, they come out with a touch of lemon that feeds. And best of all, it is a recipe that I can also share with my nephews Celiac. So, I already have another idea for our family reunions. I usually keep them in a tin box and they stay tender for a couple of weeks.

What does it look like? I will do them for these holidays. I wanted to ask you or someone if they know, how much is the difference between 250g of wheat flour and cornstarch because I have an allergy to wheat flour and I have to put corn flour, thank you ... ………
How good, compi !. Marquesas are one of the things I like the most about Christmas sweets. I think I'm doing them this afternoon. They have been spectacular, what looks !. A kiss.
It is the Christmas candy that I like the most, I sure do. Silvia, where do you buy the square molds, I've never seen them. Thanks.
At home they have also been made forever, nothing to do with the ones bought, congratulations they have been fantastic!
Kisses
Good morning, I did not know these desserts, but they look very good. I want to ask a question, the mixture is put into the paper molds. Won't they bend and everything falls off? Do you need any other support, or not?
Regards,
Josep-Maria
Hi Josep, before filling the molds, you place them on a rack or baking tray, and then carefully put them in the oven.
Hello Silvia, what do they look like, this week it is not happening to do them.
I wanted to ask you some things, although they are not from this recipe. I am “getting time to prepare Christmas meals (like everyone else) and I would like to know if I can prepare in advance and freeze the following dishes: Pedro Ximenez sauce, caramelised onion, candied peppers, the sauce of peppers stuffed with eels. Thank you very much for your time and congratulations for the blog, it is a great help. Happy holidays, Esmeralda.
I finished doing them right now, and they turned out really good and in 15 minutes.
Kisses and happy holidays to everyone.
