During the world cup football, I wanted to teach my children a few things about the various countries participating in the event. Since it was being held in Brazil, i thought it would be fun to try to find a kid friendly recipe that we could bake together and enjoy as a treat.
I searched the internet for Brazilian recipes that had ingredients I thought my children would be happy to eat. I came across this Bolo Baeta recipe , which looks both tasty and simple. It does not require frosting or decoration of any kind, just a sprinkling of icing sugar. What could be better!
