The Classic Brigadeiro Recipe: A Brazilian Delight for Any Occasion

In a saucepan, add 400 ml of condensed milk and 40 g of butter.

Set the induction stove to low heat (number 2) and stir continuously to prevent burning.

Cook for about 15 minutes while stirring constantly, ensuring you do not leave it for more than 10 seconds without stirring.

After about 10-12 minutes, the mixture will become thicker and you will be able to see the bottom of the pan when whisking.

Once the mixture reaches 90 degrees Celsius, add 45 g of cocoa powder and mix well until combined.

Remove the mixture from heat and spread it onto a tray to cool down for easier rolling.

Once cooled, use your hands or a spoon to roll the mixture into small balls, about the size of a ping pong ball.

Roll the brigadeiros in cocoa powder or chocolate sprinkles for coating.

Store the brigadeiros in a container at room temperature, avoiding refrigeration.
