Where to find ingredients
You can find sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, and chocolate sprinkles in the baking aisle of any local supermarket in The Bahamas. For a substitution, if you cannot find 'granulado', standard chocolate vermicelli or shavings work perfectly to provide the signature finish.

- Process the mixture thoroughly until it reaches a completely smooth consistency.
- Grease a microwave-safe ring-style pudding mold with a little butter or oil.
- Pour the blended mixture into the prepared mold.
- Cook in the microwave on high power for 6 to 8 minutes.
- Remove from the microwave and allow it to cool down to a lukewarm temperature.
- Carefully unmold the Brigadeirão onto a serving plate while it is still warm.
- Generously garnish with chocolate sprinkles before serving.
