Where to find ingredients
You can find condensed milk, cocoa powder, heavy cream, and chocolate sprinkles at local supermarkets like Pick n Pay or Spar. If needed, a high-quality cocoa powder is a perfect substitute for standard drinking chocolate powder to ensure a richer flavor.
Preparation method
- In a saucepan, combine the condensed milk, butter, and cocoa powder.
- Place over low heat and stir constantly until the mixture reaches the 'brigadeiro' stage, meaning 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 base has cooled, stir in the heavy cream until the mixture is uniform and silky smooth.
- Divide the cream equally among individual dessert cups.
- Refrigerate the cups for at least 4 hours to allow them to set firmly.
- Top with chocolate sprinkles to taste just before serving.
