Ingredients
1 tin condensed milk
4 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 carton heavy cream
Chocolate sprinkles to taste for garnishing
4 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 carton heavy cream
Chocolate sprinkles to taste for garnishing
Where to find ingredients
You can find all these ingredients at local supermarkets in Botswana, such as Choppies or Spar. Look for condensed milk and heavy cream in the baking or long-life milk aisles. If cocoa powder is unavailable, a high-quality drinking chocolate mix can be used as a substitute, though pure cocoa powder is the gold standard for authentic results.
Preparation method
- In a saucepan, combine the condensed milk, butter, and cocoa powder.
- Place the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly until it reaches the brigadeiro consistency, where it begins to pull away from the bottom of the pan.
- Remove from the heat and allow it to cool completely.
- Once the brigadeiro base has cooled, fold in the heavy cream and mix thoroughly until you achieve a smooth and silky texture.
- Distribute the cream into individual dessert glasses.
- Place the glasses in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours to set.
- Garnish with chocolate sprinkles to taste before serving.
