Delicious Chipa Rolls (A Type of Cheese Rolls)
This is a traditional recipe from the north of Argentina and Paraguay. They are truly delicious cheese rolls, which are quite easy to make, freeze perfectly either raw or cooked, and are definitely crowd-pleasers. In case you can´t find tapioca flour/starch where you live, you can buy it at Amazon, for instance. I have never met anyone who doesn´t like them!!!

DIRECTIONS
- Put the tapioca in a big bowl (it is quite thin so it can make a mess), along with coldish butter (chopped roughly), the mozzarella or any semi-soft cheese (also roughly cut to make the process easier), the grated parmesan cheese, and the eggs.
- Start mixing the ingredients by hand until the dough is somewhat formed.
- Add the hard cheese cut into small squares to the dough and keep kneading until you have a homogeneous dough (with the exception of the hard cheese squares, which aren´t supposed to blend in).
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes or so. This step can be skipped if in a hurry and they´ll still come out great.
- Take small pieces of dough and form little balls with it.
- Cook in a 400°F oven for around 15 mins, checking every 5 mins or so. The result should be crunchy outside and softer inside.
