Combine 3 cups of flour (336 g) and 1/2 cup of sugar (112 g) in a bowl.

Add vanilla to taste, 10 g of baking powder, and 15 g of dry yeast to the mixture.

Pour in 3/4 cup of water (150 ml), starting with 100 ml.

Add 2 eggs at room temperature and 50 g of butter to the mixture.

Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until smooth.

Divide the dough into four pieces and let rest for a few minutes.

Shape each piece by flattening it and adding sweetened condensed milk filling.

Fold and roll the dough to enclose the filling, shaping it into a figure resembling a doll.

Cut small pieces from the dough to form arms and a head, attaching them to the main body.

Place the shaped dough on a baking tray and let it rise for about 40 minutes.

Brush the tops with egg wash before baking.

Bake in the oven at 360°F (170°C) for 25 minutes.

Prepare the icing by mixing 1/3 cup of powdered sugar with yellow food coloring and 1 tablespoon of water until smooth.

Use a piping bag to decorate the baked guaguas with icing, adding eyes and other details.
