Use Goya Discos (pre-made, frozen pastry discs), fill with whatever
you were thinking of, dust the outside with a mixture of granulated
sugar and cinnamon after frying. Those pastry discs are pretty
neutral. I might use the ones without annato in them (they are more
orange). Annato, to me, is a savory flavor.
