1

In a mixing bowl, place 150 g of butter at room temperature.

2

Add 150 g of sugar to the butter and mix with a fork until combined.

3

Add a splash of vanilla extract to the mixture.

4

Add 2 teaspoons of milk and mix again by hand.

5

Add 2 eggs and beat the mixture by hand once more.

6

Gradually sift in 400 g of flour, mixing it in parts.

7

If you don't have self-raising flour, you can use regular flour with 1 teaspoon of baking powder.

8

Once all ingredients are combined, the mixture will form a dough.

9

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap or place it in a bag and refrigerate for about an hour.

10

After an hour, remove the dough from the refrigerator and divide it into portions using your hands without needing to roll it out.

11

Form the base of the pasta frola by pressing the dough into the tart pan.

12

In a saucepan, place 500 g of sweet potato jam with a little water and dissolve it slightly over heat.

13

Spread the dissolved jam over the base of the pasta frola.

14

With the remaining dough, stretch it out and cut it into strips to create a lattice top.
