Cook this recipe

  • sweetened condensed milk-14 oz
  • chocolate sprinkles-1 cup
  • unsweetened cocoa powder-3 tablespoons
  • unsalted butter-2 tablespoons
  • heavy cream-2 tablespoons
  • vegetable oil-1 teaspoon
  • fine salt-1/8 teaspoon
1
Set up the rolling station
Parchment paper
Plate
Shallow bowl

Line a plate with parchment paper, place the chocolate sprinkles in a shallow bowl, and keep the vegetable oil nearby for rolling.

1 cup chocolate sprinkles
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
2
Combine the brigadeiro base
Measuring Spoons
Medium saucepan

Combine the sweetened condensed milk, cocoa, butter, cream and salt in a medium saucepan. Measure condensed milk by weight, using the ingredient amount.

14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1/8 teaspoon salt
3
Blend and heat the mixture
Medium saucepan
Silicone spatula

Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a silicone spatula, until the mixture is smooth and the cocoa is fully blended.

Use medium-low heat and stir constantly because the condensed milk mixture can bubble, scorch, and become very hot.

4
Cook to brigadeiro consistency
Medium saucepan
Silicone spatula

Continue cooking and stirring for 8 to 12 minutes, until the mixture becomes thick and glossy and pulls away from the bottom of the pan when scraped.

Keep hands clear of bubbling hot candy mixture while stirring.

5
Cool the mixture
Parchment paper
Plate
Silicone spatula

Spread the cooked mixture slightly on the parchment-lined plate. Cool for about 30 minutes initially, until cool enough to touch and firm enough to roll. Allow longer or refrigerate briefly if needed; do not handle hot candy.

Let the mixture cool before touching or rolling it to avoid burns.

6
Roll the truffles
Small spoon

Lightly oil clean hands and roll the cooled mixture into 1-inch balls, using a spoon to portion it evenly.

Wash hands before rolling the truffles, especially after touching shared utensils.

1 teaspoon vegetable oil
7
Coat with sprinkles
Parchment paper
Plate
Shallow bowl

Roll each truffle in the chocolate sprinkles until fully coated, then place on the parchment-lined plate.

1 cup chocolate sprinkles
8
Rest and serve
Plate

Let the truffles rest for 10 minutes before serving so they hold their shape. Keep leftovers covered in the refrigerator.
