In my trip to Brazil I could not stop eating this little chewy cheesy rolls. They got me totally addicted, so of course I needed to find a recipe to replicate!
This trip help me discover a lot of flavors that I had not tried before, the thousand uses of tapioca and the great restaurants like Oro.
I will update with a more complete post, even though we did this trip a while ago already!
