Ingredients
- 1 (14 oz) can of sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter
- Chocolate sprinkles (for rolling)
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, unsweetened cocoa powder, unsalted butter, and a pinch of salt. Stir the mixture well to combine all the ingredients.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens. This usually takes about 10-15 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when it starts to pull away from the sides of the pan and you can see the bottom of the pan when you stir.
- Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat and transfer the mixture to a greased plate. Allow it to cool for about 15 minutes.
- Once cool enough to handle, grease your hands with a little butter. Take small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls about the size of a cherry.
- Roll each ball in chocolate sprinkles until fully coated.
- Place the Brigadeiros in paper cups for serving and enjoy!
