Don't judge this sweet by it looks! The "Olho de sogra" which literally means Mother-in- law eye, may not win a beauty contest but it definitely steals hearts with its flavor. This traditional Brazilian treat is made with a luscious plum center, wrapped in creamy coconut brigadeiro, and rolled in sugar or coconut flakes. The name comes from its shape and contrasting colors, said to resemble a watchful eye, maybe like that of a... well... let's just say a very observant mother-in-law!
Funny name aside, this sweet bite is pure nostalgia and a classic at any celebration, if you have never tried it, now is the time!
