Combine 2 cans of evaporated milk, 1 and 1/2 cup brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla in a bowl.

Add 1 tablespoon of corn starch and 1/4 cup of milk to the mixture and stir until smooth, without any grooves.

Take a bit of the hot mixture and start tempering it with the corn starch mixture.

Put the tempered mixture on the stove and heat it.

Add 1 cup of flour to the mixture and keep stirring.

Add a little salt to the mixture while stirring.

Continue stirring to prevent the mixture from sticking to the pan and burning.

Once the mixture starts to pull away from the pan, remove it from the heat.

Transfer the mixture to a surface dusted with powdered sugar and let it chill a little.

Once cooled, shape the mixture into little boxes and tie them with a bow.
