Guys, you're either going to love me or hate me. This yema spread is so addictive; you'll be sitting around with a spoon and consuming the whole 1752-calorie jar in one go. Which I guess is a good or bad thing, depending on how you look at it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If it weren't so dangerously delicious, I love always keeping this spread handy. It's excellent on cakes, cupcakes, Skyflakes, sandwiches, or toast. And it's so easy to make with only three ingredients and less than 15 minutes of cook time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Yema<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Yema is a classic Filipino soft candy made of egg yolks and condensed milk. In this recipe, we added butter to the mixture to give it a spreadable consistency and salt to balance the sweetness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cooking steps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Whisk egg yolks and condensed milk in a bowl until well-blended. I also like adding a small salt pinch to balance the sweetness, but please check if you're using unsalted or salted butter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Melt the butter in a pan, and when it begins to liquefy but is still warm<\/strong>, add the egg-milk mixture and stir to combine. Make sure it's NOT<\/strong> hot, as it will cook and curdle the yolks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Don't worry if the fat floats on top; it will incorporate with the rest of the ingredients once the mixture begins to thicken. Please do not omit the butter, as it helps for a spreadable consistency.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. After about 8 to 10 minutes, the mixture will begin to thicken. At this point, tend to it religiously and whisk regularly to prevent it from burning at the bottom and clumping.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
