Empanadillas are small, stuffed pastries popular in various Spanish-speaking countries. They are typically made from a dough that can be either baked or fried, and are filled with a variety of ingredients such as meat, cheese, vegetables, or even sweet fillings like fruit. The dough is usually rolled out, cut into circles, filled, and then folded over to create a half-moon shape before cooking. These delicious treats are often enjoyed as snacks or appetizers and can be found at street food stalls, restaurants, and family gatherings. Empanadillas are similar to empanadas, but are generally smaller and can be made with different types of dough.
