Where to find ingredients
You can find polvilho doce (sweet manioc starch) at international food markets or Latin grocery stores in the flour or baking aisle. Dairy products and eggs are standard at any local supermarket. As a substitute for traditional Brazilian cheese, use a dry, salty, aged hard cheese such as finely grated Parmesan or a blend of Parmesan and Pecorino for a similar bite.
Preparation method
- Combine the oil, milk, eggs, polvilho doce, grated cheese, and salt in a blender.
- Process the mixture vigorously until the batter is completely smooth and homogeneous.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Pour the batter into greased mini muffin tins or individual small molds.
- Arrange the filled molds on a large baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the tops are golden brown.
- Remove the rolls from the molds while still warm to serve.
