BRIGADEIROS
Somewhere between a fudgy chocolate truffle and a Tootsie Roll is the Brazilian confection known as the brigadeiro. The recipe is so dead simple it can hardly be called a recipe, and the possibilities are endless as far as decorating them goes.

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.

BRIGADEIROS OR CHOCOLATE DROPS
Described as a comfort food, these fudgy chocolate balls are a mainstay at Brazilian Children's parties, where they are often served in miniature paper liners. Some people will describe them as chocolate toffee.

Steps:
- Heat the milk, bittersweet chocolate, butter and salt in a heavy saucepan over medium heat until the mixture thickens, about 15 minutes. Make sure you keep mixing the pan constantly with a wooden spoon. When the mixture begins to "dis-glue" from the pan or when you can see the bottom of the pan after scraping the wooden spoon on the bottom of the pan, you know the cooking process is over.
- Remove from heat and transfer mixture on a well greased plate.
- Let cool for 15 minutes.
- Grease your hands well and form 1 inch balls with your hands. Roll the balls into a plate full of sprinkles. Cover the ball well with the sprinkles. You may need to wash your hands in between rolling out these candies, because after a while the mixture will begin clinging to your hands. Wash out your hands, grease them up again (I just use a spray bottle) and begin rolling again. Serve in miniature paper liners.
BRIGADEIROS
The Brazilian sweets known as brigadeiros are a classic treat at birthday parties and family get-togethers, where the fudgy, chocolate-milk caramels are often rolled in sprinkles. The chef Natalia Pereira of Woodspoon in Los Angeles also makes more grownup, bittersweet brigadeiros by rolling them in cocoa powder or shredded coconut. Try her recipe, which she learned from her mother in Minas Gerais, Brazil, using either canned condensed milk or a homemade version. Either way, the candies will be tender and delicious.

Steps:
- If using store-bought condensed milk, skip to Step 2. If making the sweetened condensed milk from scratch, add the milk and sugar to a large saucepan. Heat over medium-low, and simmer, stirring occasionally and scraping the sides and bottom of the pan with a spatula, for about 30 to 40 minutes. When the milk reduces to about 1 3/4 cups, thickens to a syrup texture and turns slightly yellow, it is ready.
- Prepare the brigadeiros: Melt the butter in a heavy skillet over low heat. Add the condensed milk, cocoa powder and salt, and whisk until no trace of cocoa remains, about 5 minutes.
- Turn the heat up to medium, and use a heatproof spatula to stir the mixture constantly until it becomes thick and shiny and pulls away from the bottom of the pan as a mass when you drag the spatula across it, about 7 minutes. If you're not sure the mixture is ready, take 1/2 teaspoon of it and run it under cold water. When it's cool enough to touch, squish it with your fingers - it should be the texture of a soft and fudgy caramel.
- Scrape all of the mixture onto a piece of parchment paper, and let it cool down until it's easy to handle, about 30 minutes. Lightly butter your hands, and use them to shape a scant tablespoon of the mixture into a ball or rough cube, then roll it in the sprinkles. Place each one on a paper wrapper, if you like. The brigadeiros will keep in the fridge for 1 week, or in the freezer for 1 month. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
CHOCOLATE BRIGADEIROS
Brigadeiros are a Brazilian docinho, or sweet, that is enjoyed all over the country. These are little balls of luscious, milk fudge that are ridiculously easy to make and that can be layered with any flavor combo you like. These can be as simple as three ingredients-sweetened condensed milk, unsalted butter and whatever you are garnishing these little guys with-but I love the chocolate ones. I use real chocolate here in lieu of just cocoa powder (the tradition) to give it a much richer taste. This version is somewhere between a truffle and a traditional brigadeiro, but the result is simply heavenly: rich, thick fudgy bites!

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Stir in the sweetened condensed milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt, heavy cream, corn syrup and vanilla. When the mixture starts to bubble, add the cocoa powder and chocolate disks. Cook, stirring constantly with a rubber spatula, until the chocolate melts and the mixture pulls away from the sides and slides around the bottom, 10 to 15 minutes. (The mixture should just lightly bubble around the edges while cooking, so reduce the heat if it's cooking too quickly.)
- Without scraping the bottom of the skillet, transfer the mixture to a medium heatproof bowl. Let cool at room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate to cool completely before rolling, 3 to 4 hours.
- Grease a small ice cream scoop with nonstick spray. Scoop out 24 equal mounds of the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. (Alternatively, refrigerate for 2 hours, then scoop the mounds and refrigerate on the baking sheet until firm, about 20 minutes. The increased surface area makes the mixture cool faster.)
- Spray your hands with nonstick spray and evenly roll each mound into a ball. Then, it's up to your imagination how to garnish. You can simply roll them in cocoa powder or sprinkles. I think storing them in little paper baking cups make them look adorable as well. These are best enjoyed at room temperature.
CHOCOLATE BRIGADEIROS
Chewy, fudgy, addictive. These little chocolate fudge balls are as common and as loved in Brazil as cookies and brownies are in the United States. Traditionally, brigadeiros are a simple mixture of condensed milk, sweetened cocoa powder, and butter, cooked to a fudge state, then formed into little balls and rolled in chocolate sprinkles. I find this to be much too sweet, so I made a few changes to the original recipe, adding real chocolate, real cocoa powder, heavy cream, and corn syrup. Chocolate sprinkles are usually made with vegetable fat, so unless I know the sprinkle is made with real chocolate like the ones from Guittard or Cocoa Barry, I prefer to use cocoa powder, or grated chocolate, for rolling and the result is amazing. This is a perfect dessert to give as a gift for any occasion. Children will love it and so will adults.

Steps:
- 1 In a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan, place the condensed milk, butter, heavy cream, and corn syrup and bring to a boil over medium heat.
- 2 When the mixture starts to bubble, add the chocolate and the cocoa powder. Whisk well, making sure there are no pockets of cocoa powder. Reduce the heat to low and cook, whisking constantly, until it is the consistency of a dense fudgy batter, 8 to 10 minutes. You want the mixture to bubble toward the end, so it's important to use low heat or the sides of the pan will burn the fudge. If you undercook it, the brigadeiro will be too soft; if you overcook it, it will be too chewy. It is done when you swirl the pan and the mixture slides as one soft piece, leaving a thick burnt residue on the bottom.
- 3 Slide the mixture into a bowl (without scraping the bottom) and let cool at room temperature. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
- 4 Scoop the mixture by the teaspoonful and, using your hands, roll each into a little ball about 3/4 inch in diameter (about the size of a chocolate truffle).
- 5 Place the sprinkles in a bowl. Roll 4 to 6 brigadeiros at a time through the sprinkles, making sure they cover the entire surface. Store in an airtight plastic container for 2 days or up to 1 month in the refrigerator.
