Creamy Queijadinha
Queijadinha is a staple dessert or afternoon treat in many regions of Brazil. It’s a delicious and sweet combination of cheese and coconut that pairs perfectly with a cup of coffee. Here, it's blended and baked in one large baking pan, which creates a smooth and creamy texture. You can also mix the ingredients with a spatula and bake them in individual muffin molds to achieve the traditional crunchy texture.
