My thoughts:
I had virtually leftover guava gum (easily plant life inward the "Latin" or "International" subdivision of the grocery store either inward plastic or inward a tin) that I had served with cheese for 1 of our "snackies" dinners every bit good every bit didn't know what to practise with it. It is super tasty also existent thick every bit good every bit viscid every bit good every bit thence it wasn't like I was precisely going to spread it on breadstuff every bit good every bit telephone band it a day. Guava gum every bit good every bit cheese is a classic combination every bit good every bit 1 of my favorite uses of it, pastelitos, combines cream cheese every bit good every bit guava gum inward a flaky turnover. So proficient precisely a piddling fussy every bit good every bit trickier to pack for lunches which was 1 of my goals. So I took that consider every bit good every bit transformed it into these easy, existent portable thumbprint cookies. The cookie is existent tender (and slightly craggy) give thank you lot you lot to the cream cheese. The guava gum took forever to melt (okay, like 10 minutes) precisely when it did, it was the perfect consistency for spooning into the cookies. Pro-tip: the guava gum is basically molten carbohydrate at this asking every bit good every bit thence slice of chore ii spoons (one to scoop every bit good every bit 1 to scrape the guava goo off the other spoon) to practise full the cookies if it doesn't drip off the spoon easily--I had to practise this for the 2nd batch because fifty-fifty on low, the gum started to thicken upward again. The destination in conclusion result is a not-too sweet cookie that is full of juicy guava flavor every bit good every bit mellow cream cheese cookie.
