What is this Brazilian dessert?

Tareco is a traditional Brazilian biscuit or cookie originating from the northeastern region, particularly popular in states like Pernambuco and Paraíba. These small, crunchy biscuits are typically made from basic ingredients such as flour, sugar, eggs, and butter or margarine. They are often flavored with a hint of vanilla or lemon zest for a subtle, sweet taste. Tarecos are baked until golden brown, resulting in a crispy texture that pairs well with coffee or tea. They are enjoyed as a simple yet delightful treat, embodying the homemade baking traditions of northeastern Brazil.
