Steps:
- Combine 2 cups milk and 1 cup sugar in a saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Whisk egg yolks and 2 tablespoons masa harina together in a bowl until well combined. Add to milk, stirring constantly, until pastry cream thickens, about 7 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside to cool for 1 hour.
- Place corn husks in a bowl, cover with boiling water, and soak for 30 to 60 minutes. Drain, place on a work surface, and cover with a clean, damp towel.
- Place almonds in a heat-proof bowl and cover with boiling water. Let stand for a few minutes until cool enough to handle. Slip the almonds out of their skins one by one, leaving the remaining almonds in the warm water. Drain almonds in a colander and finely chop.
- Beat 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter in a bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Add 1 1/4 cups sugar and continue to beat until mixture is very fluffy. Add 2 cups masa harina and baking powder and continue mixing dough by hand. Add milk, 1/4 cup at a time, until dough has a soft and fluffy texture. Mix in rice flour and if necessary, add more milk. Keep kneading dough until it is smooth and moist. Add almonds and continue kneading until dough is smooth and elastic.
- Select 1 wide corn husk or 2 small ones. Spread about 2 tablespoons of dough onto the the corn husk, filling it up to 2 inches from the bottom and 1/4 inch from the top. Add 1 tablespoon of pastry cream down the center of the dough. Fold sides of husk together, one over the other. Fold the bottom of the husk over the seam of the 2 folded sides. Repeat with remaining husks.
- Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add tamales with the open side up and cook until filling is heated through and separates from the husk, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Let tamales rest for 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- 1. Soak the corn husks in warm water about 20 minutes. Pat dry and wrap in a damp towel. In a 2-piece large steamer kettle, put 2 cups of hot water in the bottom and place the steamer part on top. Line the top with extra corn husks. 2. With an electric beater or mixer, beat the butter and sugar until creamy, about 1 minute. Beat in the egg yolks, 1 at a time. In a bowl, mix rice flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to the butter mixture and beat to combine, 20 to 30 seconds. In another bowl, beat the egg white to soft peaks. Fold into the batter. The dough should just hold its shape on a spoon. 3. Lay 1 corn husk on a working surface and put 1 generous tablespoon of the batter in a 3-inch-long band, about 1-inch wide, in the center of the husk near the wide end. Put about 6 raisins on the batter and press them in. Fold the sides of the husk to overlap, but not too tight, to leave room for the batter to expand. Twist the pointed end in the opposite direction of the seam, and set aside, folded ends down. Repeat until all husks are filled. 4. Bring the water in the steamer to a boil. Lay the tamales on the corn husks in the top of the steamer, leaving space between so they can steam evenly. Cover with foil and a damp towel to prevent steam from dripping onto the tamales. Put on the lid and steam the tamales 25 to 30 minutes, or until the dough separates easily from the husk. Serve at once. To keep, freeze in a sealed plastic freezer bag 3 to 4 weeks. Re-steam directly from the freezer.From "1,000 Mexican Recipes." Copyright 2001 by Marge Poore. Used with permission of the publisher, Wiley Publishing, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

SWEET TAMALES WITH FIGS AND RED CORN MASA
Sweet tamales are unique, delicious, and a fun project for holiday desserts or breakfasts. Using fresh red corn masa flour or homemade nixtamal, the flavors of heirloom corn come through beautifully and compliment the two filling options suggested below: fig jam and dried figs or raspberries and dark chocolate.

Steps:
- Rinse about 30 dried corn husks and then soak them overnight. Weigh them down with a plate so they stay submerged.
- The next day, in the bowl of a stand mixer using the paddle attachment, beat the lard and butter until the mixture looks similar to merengue.
- Slowly add the sugar, baking powder, salt, ground spices, and fig jam (skip the fig jam if you're making the raspberry and chocolate variation). Continue mixing and occasionally pause to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula.
- Add the masa harina and water in parts, pausing the mixer so the dry flour doesn't poof out of the bowl. If you're using wet nixtamal masa, add it in chunks. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, check on the texture of the masa, and add more water if needed.
- Run the mixer for about 3 additional minutes after you're satisfied with the masa's hydration. Then add the dried figs (or raspberries and chocolate chips) and mix briefly to distribute them throughout the batter.
- Drain the water from the corn husks and pat them dry. Separate out small or damaged husks to use for lining your pot or tearing into strips to tie around the tamales.
- Set up a tamale-making work area with the corn husks, a baking sheet for the finished tamales, a cutting board where you will fill and fold the tamales, and the bowl of masa with a spatula for scooping.
- See the gallery below and video above for visual depiction of these instructions.
- Place a corn husk on your cutting board with the narrow end/angle of the triangle closest to you. Scoop about 1/3 cup of filling and place it in the center of the husk. Fold the husk in half lengthwise, and then fold that empty double layer of husk over the filled portion of the tamale. Finally fold the pointy empty base of the tamale upward over the filled portion. Lay the folded tamale, final fold side down, on a baking sheet. Repeat until all the filling is gone.
- Tear a couple of corn husks into strips and tie them around the tamales, over the final fold if possible.
- Place a coin (e.g. nickel) on the bottom of your pot so the sound of it rattling will let you know your water is boiling. If the heat is high and the coin has gone silent, you need to add more water.
- Add the steaming basket/rack and water, making sure the water is below the level of the basket. Then line the side of the pot with some of the extra husks to prevent the tamales from being flush with the hot sides of the pot.
- Now add a loosely balled piece of aluminum foil to the pot to take up extra space (unless you've doubled the recipe or are using a small pot). Finally place your tamales in the pot with the final fold facing inward toward the foil ball. I put the larger tamales on the outside and the smaller ones in the middle.
- Cover the tamales with more of the corn husks, tucking the narrow ends under the tops of the tamales. Add a small towel to the top of the husks and cover the pot with the lid.
- Place the pot on the stove at high heat. When the water begins to boil (coin rattles), lower the heat until you feel pressure under the lid but the water is lightly boiling.
- Set a timer for 1 hour and let the tamales continue to steam.
- When the time is up, remove and unwrap one of the tamales. If the masa doesn't stick to the husk, it's done cooking. If the masa sticks to the husk, rewrap the tamale, add a little water to the pot, and steam for another 15-20 minutes before you check again.
- Serve the tamales immediately or reheat them later in the microwave or on a fry pan. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for about a week or wrap individually and freeze for several months.
