Colombian snacks are usually fried and made of dough and in many cases, they are sweetened. Arepas is a Colombian common snack, as it is prepared really quickly. The recipe of arepas contains precooked white corn, butter and salt, a composition which is formed into flat tortillas and roasted over the fire. A favorite Colombian snack is the pizza spread, which is an open recipe that allows creativity and many toppings: mushrooms, cheese, onion and spices like parsley and celery. Colombian rice pilaf, cornucopia chili (with honey, kidney beans, cumin, cayenne and tomatoes), renellos or pasta poblano (with a puree made of onions, garlic and heavy cream) are other loved snacks. The bunuelos, also known as the fried cheese puffs are prepared with grinded white cheese or small curd cottage chase, locally called quesito, cornstarch, brown sugar and beaten eggs. The hojulas are also sweet fried snacks (fried puff squares), with a composition of butter, ice cold water, orange juice, cooking oil, sugar and flour.
