Portuguese sweet bread

Portuguese sweet bread (Massa Sovada or simply Massa, Pão Doce, the Easter version with eggs is better known as Folar) is a bread made with milk, sugar and/or honey to produce a subtly sweet lightly textured loaf. It was traditionally made around the Christmas and Easter holidays (often with hard boiled eggs baked into the loaves for the latter holiday) as a round-shaped loaf, but today it is made and available year-round. The bread is usually served simply with butter and is sometimes eaten with meals (breakfast in particular), but often as a dessert.
Portuguese sweet bread is common in both 
Hawaiian cuisine and New England cuisine as it was brought to those regions by their large Portuguese immigrant populations.
