Mantecados are a Holidays biscuit-like treat. The lemon flavour is one of the most common ones. They are called mantecados because they are made with pork fat (manteca), wheat flour, and sweetened with sugar and lemon aroma. Each individually wrapped unit contains two mantecados, presumably because one is never enough. The manufacturer calls them double lemon, but the double refers simply to the fact that two biscuits come wrapped together, rather than the amount of lemon flavouring used. Anyway, this is a great entry into the world of mantecados, and is a firm national favourite.
