Ingredients
• 3 egg yolks
• 180 g condensed milk
• 120 g mashed potato
• 1 tablespoon plain flour
• 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1/8 teaspoon salt

Sugar Glaze:
• 100 g sugar
• 60 ml water
• 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar

Directions
1. Combine all the ingredients and cook in a double boiler, stirring frequently until the mixture thickens for 15 minutes.
2. Set aside to cool, may be chilled for 30 minutes to 1 hour, then roll into 2.5 cm diameter balls.
3. If you choose simpler Yema balls, drop the balls into white sugar instead of dipping the balls in sugar glaze.
4. For the sugar glaze, combine the ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
5. Cook until syrup is lightly caramelized.
6. Dip the Yema balls into the syrup and set aside to cool. Wrap the balls in colored cellophane paper or tiny paper cups.
