In a saucepan, combine 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 cup water, 1 tablespoon sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Add 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter to the mixture and heat until it boils.

Once boiling, add 1 1/2 cups flour and stir until it forms a thick dough that pulls away from the sides of the pan.

Cook for 3-4 minutes until the dough is smooth and no longer has lumps.

Transfer the dough to a mixing bowl to cool slightly.

Once the dough is warm, add 4 eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the dough is smooth and slightly sticky.

Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a plain tip (C12).

Pipe small mounds of dough onto a silicone mat or parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Wet your finger and flatten any peaks on the dough mounds to prevent burning during baking.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and bake for 30-40 minutes until golden brown.

Let the baked carolinas cool before filling them with store-bought doce de leite using a piping bag fitted with a small tip.

Melt chocolate in the microwave for decoration.
