About the dish

Quesadilla Salvadoreña is a sweet dessert cake or a sweet bread that's usually found in local bakeries. In some villages, the cake is traditionally prepared on Sunday morning. It's made with a combination of flour, queso fresco or parmesan cheese, sugar, baking powder, milk or sour cream, eggs, and butter. Before baking, the cake is sometimes sprinkled with sesame seeds on top. Once done, it's cut into wedges and served.
