Pour the flour into a bowl, then add the baking powder, sugar, and salt. Mix well. Add the eggs one by one, mix, pour the cream gradually, and integrate again. Transfer the mixture to a floured flat surface and knead for 15 minutes or until a smooth and homogeneous dough is obtained. Return the dough to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rest in the refrigerator for 20 minutes. Sprinkle flour on a flat surface, roll out the dough with a rolling pin, and cut circles with a 6.5 cm diameter cutter. Repeat until all the dough is used. Cook the cajeta gorditas on a griddle over low heat for 5 minutes on each side. Cool the gorditas and open them in half. Fill the gorditas with Coronado® caramel and enjoy.
