I just googled and here's what i found:cono capuchino - an ice-cream cone topped with chocolate dulce de leche - a syrup of boiled milk and sugar. Also thicker, fudgelike cajeta - delicious! flan - cold caramel custard mazamorra - corn starch pudding melcocha - candy made from raw sugar milanes - chocolate candies pan de maiz - corn sweet bread queque seco - pound cake torta chilena - multilayered cake filled with dulce de leche
