- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 cup powdered sugar

Directions
- To make a dough: combine flour, cream of tartar, salt, baking soda in a bowl. Mix well and set aside. In another bowl, combine sugar, powdered sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vegetable oil and beat well. Gradually add flour mixture, mixing well after each addition. Finally, add vanilla and almond extract and mix well.
- To color the dough: divide it into six even-sized balls and add one color to each ball until desired colors are achieved.
- Line a square or rectangular food container with plastic wrap. Spread black dough flat over plastic wrap at the bottom of container. Spread remaining dough one at a time to make flat layers on top. Cover dough and refrigerator for 4 hours or overnight.
- To bake biscuits: preheat oven to 350F. Remove dough from refrigerated container and remove plastic wrap. Using a sharp knife, slice dough into desired number of biscuits.
- Place sliced dough on baking tray lined with parchment paper. Place baking tray into preheated oven and bake for 12 minutes.
- To shape biscuits: remove baked from the oven and immediately use burro piñata biscuits cutter to cut biscuits into striped burro shapes (the black dough forms the feet). Each piñata biscuits will be made of 3 burro layers. Cut each burro in half the long way. For biscuits that will be used as the middle layer, cut off the ears and legs and cut out a small square in the belly so there’s room for candies later. Work as quickly as possible, as biscuits will crumble when cooled. Let biscuits cool in baking tray.
- To assemble biscuits: take the bottom of layers and apply icing glue. Put the middle layer on the top of it, placing colorful candies in the open centre. Apply another layer of icing glue, then stick top layer on. Repeat with remaining biscuits. Let biscuits harden for at least 30 minutes then stand upright to serve.
