Make a well in the center and add 2 1/2 tablespoons of clarified butter and 2 eggs.

Mix with a spoon and then use your hands to combine until a dough forms.

5

Wrap the dough in a bag or plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour or freeze for 20 minutes.

In a saucepan, place chopped quince paste and add 2-3 tablespoons of water.

Cook over low heat, stirring to dissolve the quince paste until smooth, then remove from heat and mash to eliminate lumps.

Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 35 minutes.
