Not much work for this one...no sweat kind of dessert. Beloved by Brazilians and foreigners alike. Maria decided to add this page when she read a request from a Japanese guy in our Responses from Saudades do Brasil page. I mean, if we get a request from Japan for the most common of Brazilian desserts...
All you need really is goiabada (guava paste) or marmelada (quince paste) and a good cheese like a muenster, havarti, etc. Or, if you can find it, Brazilian requeijπo (Latino markets in South Florida carry that). Serve a sliver of goiabada or marmelada with a slice of cheese or a spoonful of requeijπo. I've heard that this dessert is called "Romeo and Juliet" because it's such a perfect match! Enjoy it!
