Who can resist this soft pillowy buns that are buttery and cheesy? I am sure a lot of people would ditch their diet just to take one or two of these buns. It is a sweet bread that is topped with butter, sugar and grated cheese. Yes it is sinful but it is worth it. Another name for this bun is called ensaymada.
