Recipe by: COOKING RIGHT SHOW #CR9723 In the bowl of
an electric mixer fitted with a paddle, beat the
butter until light and fluffy (4-5 minutes). Add the
masa, baking powder, salt and sugar and mix till
blended. Add the water, corn puree, raspberry puree
and vanilla and mix just until combined. Dough should
be light and very moist. Spread the dough on soaked
corn husks in a square approximately 1/4 inch thick.
Distribute some of the raisins, almonds and candied
lemon peel in center and roll up to form a cylindrical

tamale. Steam tamales for 30 minutes and serve warm
with some of the ginger custard sauce and a garnish of
fresh berries and mint sprigs.
