Where to find ingredients

Preparation method
- Mix the shredded coconut with the warm water in a small bowl
- Let the coconut rest for about 5 minutes until it is well hydrated
- Place the hydrated coconut, eggs, egg yolks, sugar, and butter into a blender and blend just enough to combine
- Grease a 1.5-liter microwave-safe dish with butter and sprinkle with sugar, then pour in the mixture
- Microwave on medium power for 9 to 12 minutes until the quindão begins to set
- Remove from the microwave, let it cool slightly, and carefully unmold onto a serving plate
- Wait for it to cool completely before serving to ensure the ideal texture
Observations
The quindão is a larger and very popular variation of the traditional quindim. This simplified version uses the microwave to ensure speed without losing the characteristic flavor of coconut and eggs. Tip: use a microwave-safe mold to ensure even cooking.
