Brigadeiros
Brigadeiros are a delightful Brazilian sweet treat that will surely satisfy your sweet tooth! They are small, bite-sized chocolate truffles traditionally made with condensed milk, cocoa powder, butter, and covered in chocolate sprinkles.
Ingredients
- 1 can condensed milk (14 oz)
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Chocolate sprinkles for coating
Instructions
- In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the condensed milk, cocoa powder, and butter over medium heat.
- Stir the mixture constantly to prevent it from burning or sticking to the pan. Keep stirring until it thickens and starts to pull away from the sides of the pan. This should take about 10-15 minutes.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool down until you can handle it with your hands.
- Grease your hands with a little bit of butter or oil to prevent the mixture from sticking to your hands.
- Take small portions of the mixture and roll them into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
- Roll each brigadeiro in the chocolate sprinkles until they are fully coated.
- Place the brigadeiros on a plate or baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let them cool and set for about 30 minutes.
- Once they are cooled and set, you can serve and enjoy!
