Pao de Queijo

These Brazilian cheese puffs are wonderfully melt in your mouth. Savoury little snacks that are made with tapioca flour instead of wheat flour, making them good for people with an intolerance to wheat.

They are best served straight out of the oven, when they're still a bit gooey inside from the delectable cheese.
