In reply to Chloe Ellis. Thank you for trying my conchas! The topping can get crumbly if it’s too dry, if butter is not enough, add a 1-2 teaspoons of water and knead until it holds together nicely.

I made these and everything went great! They even tasted great. However, I had trouble with making my topping. It got very crumbly and did not want to stay together. Any tips on this?

In reply to Lorena. Yes, you can freeze the dough! It’s best to freeze it after the first rise. Simply shape the dough into individual conchas or a ball, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and place it in a freezer-safe bag or container. When you're ready to bake, thaw it overnight in the fridge, then let it come to room temperature before proceeding with the second rise and shaping. Enjoy!

Can you freeze the dough if you don’t want to make all 12 concha’s? If yes, at what point in process? Thank you!

Just made these and they were so good. Best eaten the day of so soft and perfect. They are still good the next day but nothing compares to them being fresh. These are way better than store bought and worth the effort. I used butter in mine and reduced the sugar and still came out amazing!

I was worried they wouldn’t be good since they take all day to make but boy was i surprised. They have a hint of sweetness and a donut like texture. I wish there was a less time consuming version though but definitely awesome goodness.

In reply to Caroline. Not sure what went wrong but I followed the recipe word for word, I even watched the video multiple times. My dough was not sticky, duper dry, did not over mix, my kitchen was warm. Ugh, please help.

I had this when I visited Mexico and have been longing for it again! This nailed it!
