Polvorones are shortbread-style cookies made with flour, sugar, and pork lard or butter, often enriched with ground almonds and dusted with powdered sugar. They originate from Andalusia, especially around the town of Estepa, and are named after polvo (dust) due to their crumbly, melt-in-your-mouth texture.
Traditionally eaten during Christmas and festive seasons, they are sold wrapped in paper and are a staple in Spanish holiday gift boxes and dessert trays.
