Brigadeiro and Beijinho are traditional dessert bites that every Brazilian likes. They always make people smile because they taste so good. They are easily found anywhere: from birthday parties, to grandma’s house, even at restaurants. Also, they were very present in my childhood memories from growing up in Brazil.

Later, I moved to Washington D.C., and I started making them as a way to keep my memories alive. Most of my American friends did not know what those sweets were, but they loved whenever I made them. Eventually, my life became a crazy, hectic routine of work and school. Missing something that I really love made me think about crafting brigadeiros to share with everyone around me, to satisfy their sweet tooth. And it turns out that their kids really liked my brigadeiros too!
