Quesitos ~ Vegan (Puerto Rican Cream Cheese Pastry) Quesitos are Sweet, Simple, and Luxurious! My my my, THIS is yet another Puerto Rican dessert/pastry that you MUST try. These Quesitos are quick to make and delightfully vegan. They take about ten to fifteen minutes to prep and twenty minutes to bake. These can be a dessert, eaten for breakfast, or make an excellent after dinner treat. Quesitos have the perfect balance of sweet and salty. Quesitos are a popular dessert in Puerto Rican bakeries. This pastry has such a nostalgic quality about them. My Vegan Quesitos have cheese… vegan cheese. Hehe. I prefer Mikoyo’s cream cheese for this recipe. The simplicity of this Puerto Rican cream cheese pastry is sure to satisfy. Estilo Boricua ~ Enjoy! ~ Vegan, Dairy-free; Egg-free ~
