A-Z food challenge: B is for Brazil

..and B is also for Brigadeiro, a delicious truffle-like Brazilian sweet. Made by cooking condensed milk, cocoa powder and butter over the stove until it thickens it is then rolled into little balls and finished with a dusting of cocoa powder or other suitable topping. Easy to make and easy to eat!

To add a little health kick, I also decided to make a Vitamina de Abacate (Avocado smoothie) on the side. I first had an avocado smoothie in Morocco and was completely enamoured with it. So when I found out that the drink is also popular in Brazil, I knew it had to make the menu tonight. With its creamy and buttery texture, avocado is a perfect sweet ingredient.

Tomorrow is C - Czech Republic, with more desserts on the menu. Ready your tastebuds!
