Ricanelas are cinnamon-flavored biscuits or cookies popular in certain Latin American countries, particularly in Mexico and Peru. Known for their distinctive cinnamon aroma and slightly crisp texture, ricanelas are often enjoyed as a snack or dessert, served with coffee, hot chocolate, or tea. They are typically made with flour, sugar, butter, and a generous amount of cinnamon, which gives them their characteristic flavor.
