Biscoitos recheados, little guava paste roll cookies

Ingredients

• 1 kg of wheat flour
• 700 g of goiabada cascão (gooseberry paste)
• 250 ml of milk
• 200 g of vegetable fat (or butter), very cold
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla
• 1 teaspoon of baking powder
• A pinch of salt
• 1 egg

In a mixing bowl, combine the milk, egg, vanilla, salt, baking powder, and flour until you have a smooth batter.

Add the grated fat, mix well, and form into a ball. Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for two hours.

Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Divide the dough into five equal portions.

Finely chop each portion.

Cut out rectangles that are 3.5 x 3 cm and roll them around thin strips of goiabada (a Brazilian fruit spread).

Place them on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
