In a bowl, add 4 cups of all-purpose flour and make a well in the center.

Heat half a cup of evaporated milk in the microwave for 20 seconds until warm.

Add 1 teaspoon of yeast, 1 teaspoon of flour, and 1 teaspoon of sugar to the warm milk and let it activate for a few minutes.

In another bowl, beat 2 eggs and add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, mixing well.

Add 3/4 cup of sugar to the egg mixture and mix until combined.

Once the yeast is activated, incorporate it into the egg mixture slowly while stirring.

Add the softened butter and mix until combined, then add more evaporated milk as needed (approximately half a cup).

Knead the dough for about 5-8 minutes until it is smooth and not sticky, adjusting with more flour or milk if necessary.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise until doubled in size (about 45 minutes).

Prepare the topping by mixing 1 cup of powdered sugar with 1 cup of all-purpose flour and less than 1 cup of vegetable shortening, then divide into two portions.

Color one portion with pink food coloring and the other with yellow food coloring, mixing until well combined.

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into equal portions, shaping them into balls.

Flatten each dough ball and place the colored topping on top, pressing it down slightly.

Use a spatula to create lines on the topping for decoration.

Place the conchas on a greased baking sheet and let them rest for another 20 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Bake the conchas for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
