Maria biscuits (bolacha Maria) and bolo de bolacha

Línguas de gato (cat's tongues) are thin, crisp biscuits with cinnamon and lemon, from Triunfo and Serial. Serial Palmiers are sugared puff pastry, like the laços and manina. Folhadinhos are small glazed puff pastries, and beijinhos are almond biscuits.
