Brigadeiro recipe

The brigadeiro is one of the most popular brazilan chocolate desserts. In Brazil there is no birthday party without brigadeiros.
The recipe is very, very easy and super fast!

I discovered these delicious fudge candies some months ago during a party at school. My brazilian friend, Gisele, brought these small balls and we ate them all at the end. A great success :-)









Yummy tips
If you want, you can use unrolled brigadeiro as a topping or filling for cakes, cupcakes and brownies.

Ingredients:
400 ml. condensed milk
30 gr. cocoa powder
10 gr. butter
colorful sugar sprinkles

Mix the condensed milk, cocoa powder and butter together.
Cook in a medium non.stick saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the mixture starts to show the bottom of the pan when you scrape it with your spoon (about 8 minutes).
When the brigadeiro is ready, remove from the stove and spread onto a greased plate.
Let cool before starting to roll them into balls with greased hands.
Decorate with sprinkles.
