Cuscuz is a Brazilian dessert that you will find being sold by street vendors, as well as being a popular family dish. Made with coconut, tapioca, sugar, and condensed milk, it has a gooey, jello-like consistency and is served in rectangular hunks. Sometimes, people will pour condensed milk on top before eating it.
Basically, you mix tapioca and sugar in a bowl, and pour hot water or milk on top to form a paste. Then you add shredded coconut and set the mixture to cool.
