Cajuzinho

Описание

Исходное описание на английском языке. Русский перевод ещё не добавлен.

Although this sweet treat typically does not contain any cashews, its name, cajuzinho , literally means little cashew . It consists of finely chopped or ground peanuts, condensed milk, sugar, and cocoa powder, shaped into small, conical cashews that are usually rolled in granulated sugar. Cashew nuts may be added, but peanuts are dominant in flavor when cajuzinho is consumed. This popular sweet is found throughout Brazil, either prepackaged or made at home, and it is especially popular at Brazilian parties. If made in a traditional manner, it is common to press a single peanut into each cajuzinho. In the northeast of Brazil, however, cajuzinho is usually made from cashew marmalade, covered in granulated sugar, and topped with toasted cashews.
