Cinnamon cake, filled with dulce de leche and peanut crispy.

(Em português)

So, what do we have here?

A boyfriend's birthday, a huge jar of dulce de leche from Minas (I think it was 500g, maybe more), and some great peanuts.

For me, it seemed like a good idea to turn it all into a cinnamon cake filled with a peanut crispy and dulce de leche. I adapted this recipe for the cake dough, which came out a bit too dry, but even so it tasted nice, and the result was the cake in the pictures.

Cooked bananas.

Also known as "best afternoon snack for the ones who are home at that

time", or express dessert.

Baked doughnuts filled with dulce de leche.

Remeber that dulce de leche I got as gift?

I love it. I could sing odes to conaprole.

But people, it's just one person in here. haha 

There's no way I can handle 1kg of dulce de leche.

So, I thought to myself, I'll bake something with it, since I'm having visitors.

Ay, qué rico!

(In Portuguese)

The parents of a friend of mine live in Rio Grande do Sul,
and on her way back from vacation in there, she brought home tons
of the best dulce de leche in the universe: conaprole.
When I say tons, I mean one 3,5kg package and another 1kg.
She gave me the "tinier" one as a gift. I absolutely loved it.
And the first thing that poped in my mind was, of course, alfajor.
