Visited a few panaderias while in No. Calif. this Spring, and tried the marranitos, aka cochinitos . Found this recipe online (allrecipes) I think. Does anyone know where I might buy a cookie cutter --pig or hog shaped? Read more I wonder where the panaderias get their supplies? These cookies taste kinda like gingerbreadmen, but there is no ginger. thank you for any in-put. See less

How to make it
- Preheat oven 350 Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll dough 1/4 inch thick. (I refrigerated the dough, and worked with 1/4 of the dough at a time. ) Was using a pig I cut out of a coolwhip lid, and it was too frustrating and laborious and I ended up making walnut sized balls, and smooshing them into a" lima bean "shape. Keeping the 1/4 inch thickness. Paint tops of cochinitos before baking. with eggwash . Bake 15 - 17 minutes
- enjoy!
