Where to find ingredients
You can find condensed milk and table cream in the baking or dairy aisles of major supermarkets in Lusaka or other regional centers. Unsalted butter is readily available in the cold storage section. If table cream is unavailable, a high-fat heavy whipping cream can serve as a suitable substitute.
Preparation method
- In a saucepan, whisk together the condensed milk, butter, and cocoa powder.
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches the brigadeiro stage and 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, stir in the table cream until the mixture is smooth, silky, and uniform.
- Divide the cream evenly into individual dessert glasses.
- Refrigerate the glasses for at least 4 hours to allow them to set.
- Garnish with chocolate sprinkles before serving.
