Brazilian Coffee Risotto Recipe, a dessert
Brazilian coffee risotto recipe, a dessert that will blow your mind up and away. Try this spicy cross of a salty dish with a sweet delicacy!
Risottos don’t always need to be heavily tasty. This recipe is inspired by Jackie Cameron’s Spicy Coffee Risotto.
It is a rice pudding type of dessert that will go great with fresh fruit, especially tropical stuff.
Arroz Doce (sweet rice) is a very popular and common dessert is Brazil.
I took the recipe from Ms. Cameron and adapted it to a new version of Arroz Doce with that “al dente” feeling of the Italian dish.
