I promise it will be the last one! Let's eat in Brazil?- 3 Sweets

Sweets! 
  Hmmm, it's hard to find a brazilian who doesn't like our sweets, and in this post you'll see why.
        Brigadeiro- Condensed milk with chocolate and butter mixed in a pan and "rolled"(?) in granulated chocolate.
        Beijinho (little kiss): Condensed milk and butter with coconut mixed in a pan and "rolled" in coconut.
        Olho de Sogra: Is the same beijinho with a prune.
        Pé de moleque: Toasted peanut with sugar.
        Paçoca: Peanut smashed with sugar.
        Cocada: Coconut toasted or not baked with sugar.
        Sweet rice: Rice with sugar, condensed milk and cinnamon.
        Sagu: A typical brazilian seed boiled with weak wine and sugar.
        Pudim: Condensed milk wit eggs and sugar baked and ate like a cake.
        Cake: Yes, our cake is different.
        Quindim: Like a little pudim with coconut and more yolk
        Queijadinha: A little sweet cheese cake (no, not a cheesecake)
        Tapioca: A thin biju of tapioca filled with everything, generally with coconut and condensed milk.
        Cural: Corn threshed cooked with sugar.
        Pamonha: Cural in a corn stover and baked.
        Goiabada: Guava with sugar
        A looooot of thing I'll post some day.....

            Ps: Why toshe names? Because in the colonial era in Brazil, the madams used to make sweets to give as a gift for their friends representing things, like little kisses(beijinho).
