U BEtter make these crispy, flaky empanadas if purple yam is your jam! Inspired by the Filipino ube desserts of my childhood and recipes in my cookbook, these deep-fried hand pies have all the sweet, earthy flavor of ube balanced with tangy cream cheese for a satisfying combination of flavors and textures in every bite. For the best ube flavor, you can find fresh, refrigerated ube halaya at Filipino markets, though the jarred kind found from online retailers can also be used. Makes 8-10 empanada
