Pinindot

It's Saturday once again, and here's what I've got from the market. Pinindot, a Filipino sweet & "sticky" delicacy. Made from glutinous rice flour, sugar & coconut milk. To some it is called Ginataang Bilo-Bilo, and for the people in Quezon, they called it Pinaltok. This is usually served during house blessings and other thanksgiving occasions.
Another yummy treat!
