We were introduced to these yummy sticks via an online game my son was
enjoying and where Cinco de Mayo is an event they celebrate with great
respect.
After some research, trial & error we've agreed this recipe satisfies
the terrible 'want more' grumble and helps to keep an eye on the
UK's guidance for a healthier nation! They are traditionally piped from star
shaped nozzels making them ridged in appearance, I found that stiffening
the dough a little enabled them to be gently hand rolled, working around
the necessity for a piping bag and additional washing up!
