Ingredients

4 tablespoons cocoa powder

Chocolate sprinkles to garnish
4 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Where to find ingredients
You can find sweetened condensed milk and cocoa powder in the baking aisle of any local supermarket. Table cream (or Nestle-style cream) is typically available in the international or canned goods section. If unavailable, heavy cream is a suitable substitute.
Preparation method
- In a heavy-based saucepan, combine the condensed milk, butter, and cocoa powder.
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it reaches the traditional brigadeiro consistency, where it begins to pull away from the bottom of the pan.
- Remove from the heat and allow the mixture to cool completely.
- Once the chocolate mixture has cooled, fold in the cream and mix thoroughly until you achieve a silky, homogeneous consistency.
- Spoon the mixture into individual dessert glasses or coupes.
- Refrigerate the glasses for at least 4 hours to allow the cream to firm up.
- Garnish with chocolate sprinkles just before serving.
