About Biscoito maizena
Biscoito Maizena, or Maizena biscuits, originate from Brazilian cuisine and are widely enjoyed as a light and simple snack. Made primarily with cornstarch (Maizena), sugar, wheat flour, milk, and butter, these cookies are known for their delicate, crumbly texture and mild sweetness. Traditionally consumed with coffee or tea, they hold a nostalgic appeal for many who grew up with them. While they provide quick energy due to their carbohydrate content, Biscoito Maizena is low in fiber and nutrients, making it a less ideal choice for sustained nutrition. The butter and added sugar also contribute to its fat and calorie content, so moderation is key when including them in a balanced diet. Despite their simplicity, they are a convenient treat for occasional enjoyment and can be part of festive recipes or used as a base for desserts.
