Brigadeiro Dessert Recipes

Steps:

• Over medium-low heat, stir vigorously the three ingredients.
• Cook the mixture until it thickens enough to show the pan bottom during stirring (it will be firm enough to stay together and not spread) Pour into a greased dish and let cool to room temperature (or chill a few minutes in the fridge) Grease your hands with butter and take small amounts of candy and form into 1 1/2 inch balls.
• Roll the balls in chocolate jimmies to decorate.
• If the balls don't hold their shape, cook an additional 5 minutes until it thickens up more.

Steps:

• In a pan, add the condensed milk, chopped chocolate and butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring, for approximately 10 minutes or until it starts to come off from the bottom. Tilt the pan and you will see the magic happening. Pour the mixture over a plate coated with butter and let it cool at room temperature.
• Butter your hands and roll individual brigadeiros. Coat them in chocolate sprinkles and serve at room temperature for ultimate creaminess!

Steps:

• Grease a 9-inch glass tube pan with margarine.
• Combine sweetened condensed milk, cream, cocoa powder, and eggs in a blender; blend until smooth for 3 minutes. Pour in the prepared tube pan.
• Microwave on high power until set, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from microwave and cool slightly. Refrigerate until set completely. Cover with sprinkles before serving.

Steps:

• Combine the condensed milk, cocoa powder and butter in a small saucepan and cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until very thick, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool to room temperature, then roll into twelve 1-inch balls and dip in sprinkles. Alternatively, scoop out spoonfuls (leave in the spoon) and dip the top portion in sprinkles.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine cocoa, butter and condensed milk. Cook, stirring, until thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest until cool enough to handle. Form into small balls and eat at once or chill until serving.

Steps:

• In a medium heavy-based saucepan, heat the butter, condensed milk, a pinch of salt and the cocoa, to boiling, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Reduce the heat to medium-low; cook for 10-15 mins, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thick and shiny and starts to pull away from the bottom.
• Stir in the vanilla and vigorously mix again. Pour the mixture onto a buttered plate. Chill for at least 2 hrs.
• Butter your hands and pinch off some of the dough to make 2.5cm balls. Place your toppings into small bowls and roll the balls of one of the decorations. Place in mini paper baking cups or on a tray lined with non-stick baking paper.

Steps:

• Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking pan (or another heatproof vessel with approximately the same dimensions) with butter or nonstick cooking spray.
• In a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, butter, and salt. Place the pan over medium heat and whisk often to encourage the butter to melt and the cocoa powder to dissolve. Once the candy comes to a bubble, reduce the heat to low and cook, whisking often. The candy is finished when it's the consistency of a thick brownie batter and slides in a soft mass from one side of the pan to the other when the pan is tilted-this can take anywhere from 15 to 25 minutes, depending on your stove, but it's better to keep the heat low and give the candy more time to cook down than to rush it and risk burning it. Stir in the vanilla extract. Pour the candy into the prepared baking pan. Chill in the refrigerator until the candy is somewhat firm with a claylike texture, about 1 hour.
• When you're ready to form the candies, pour your desired coatings onto individual plates. Use your fingers or a small ice cream scoop with a capacity of about 1 teaspoon to portion out bits of candy and roll them into 1-inch balls. Drop each ball into a dish of coating and roll to coat. Set the finished candies on a small baking sheet, or place them into small paper candy cups. Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container.

Steps:

• PREPARE:.
• Cook over medium-low heat, stir vigorously the sweetened condensed milk, margarine and cocoa powder.
• Cook the mixture until it thickens enough to show the pan bottom during stirring.
• Pour the mixture in a greased dish and let it cool to room temperature. Take small amounts of the mixture with a teaspoon and make 1 ½ inch balls.
• Roll the balls over chocolate jimmies to decorate.
• Hint: Grease your hands with margarine to make the balls easily.
• If the balls don't hold the shape and flat down like coins, it means that you did not cook enough. Cook additional five minutes, take a small sample and dip it in a glass with cold water. If you cooked enough, this sample should hold the shape after cooling down in the water.
• The cheapest , low grade sweetened condensed milk is the best to make the brigadeiro because they have more starch on them, which helps the candy to hold the shape.
• In US, buy the sweet condensed milk from the Walmart brand "Great Value", cook this brand for 20 minutes in medium heat stirring continuously and your brigadeiro is with the right consistency.
