Brigadeiros
Indulge in the sweetness of Brigadeiros, a classic Brazilian dessert that's a staple at celebrations. These chocolate truffle-like treats are rich, creamy, and rolled in chocolate sprinkles, offering a decadent bite that's impossible to resist. Made with just a few simple ingredients, Brigadeiros are a delightful way to bring a taste of Brazil into your home.
Ingredients:
- 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for rolling
- Chocolate sprinkles, for coating
Instructions:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, and butter. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and starts to pull away from the bottom and sides of the pan, about 10-15 minutes.
- Remove the mixture from heat and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 1 hour, until it's firm enough to roll.
- Butter your hands lightly. Using a spoon, scoop small amounts of the mixture and roll into balls about the size of a cherry.
- Roll each ball in chocolate sprinkles until fully coated, then place on a parchment paper-lined tray or plate.
- Chill the Brigadeiros in the refrigerator until ready to serve, allowing them to firm up further.
Enjoy Brigadeiros as a sweet treat any time of the day, or serve them at your next gathering to share a piece of Brazilian culinary delight. These chocolatey morsels are sure to captivate and satisfy any sweet tooth.
