"The traditional brigadeiro combines cooked condensed milk with butter and chocolate powder until it reaches the rolling point. Covered in chocolate sprinkles, it is the most emblematic sweet of the parties."

How to Make Perfect Homemade Brigadeiro

O Que Você Precisa Saber

- Cooking in a heavy-bottomed pot over low heat prevents the sugar in the condensed milk from burning on the bottom. - The rolling point is confirmed when the dough comes off in a block when tilting the pot on the heat. - Pre-cooling on a buttered plate firms the dough for shaping without sticking to your hands.

Ingredients

Main Course

  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 7 tablespoons of chocolate powder
  • Chocolate sprinkles for decorating

Instructions

Main Course

1

In a non-stick pan, place the condensed milk, butter, and chocolate powder.

2

Bring to medium heat and stir constantly with the wooden spoon.

3

When the mixture starts to release from the bottom of the pan, it is a sign that it is ready. This takes about 10 to 15 minutes.

4

Retire do fogo e despeje em um prato untado com manteiga.

5

Let cool for a few minutes until the dough is manageable.

6

Grease your hands with butter and roll into balls the size of a teaspoon.

7

Roll the balls in chocolate sprinkles until they are well covered.

8

Place in paper cups and serve!

Chef Tips

- Use a silicone spatula (rubber spatula) scraping the sides and bottom of the pan well during the entire cooking process. - Apply a thin layer of water or butter on the palms of your hands to roll the spheres without leaving a greasy aspect. - Wait for the dough to cool completely at room temperature before rolling into balls so the sprinkles don't melt.

Variations

- Brigadeiro de colher: retire do fogo 3 minutos antes, assim que ferver grosso e ainda cair em fita contínua. - Brigadeiro gourmet: adicione 50 g de chocolate meio amargo picado na panela junto com os ingredientes. - Cobertura de castanhas: substitua o granulado por castanhas-de-caju ou amendoim torrado triturado.

Substitutions

- The 7 tablespoons of chocolate drink mix can be substituted with 3 to 4 tablespoons of 50% cocoa powder for a less sweet flavor. - Common salted or unsalted butter can be replaced by culinary margarine with a lipid content above 80%. - Traditional sprinkles can be swapped for Belgian chocolate sprinkles or bar shavings.

How to Store

Store the already rolled brigadeiros in paper cups inside a closed container with a lid in a cool place for up to 5 days. Avoid putting it in the refrigerator so as not to sugar the texture and dampen the chocolate sprinkles.

Can You Freeze It?

The ready-made Brigadeiro dough freezes very well rolled or in a block wrapped in plastic film for up to 3 months. To consume, thaw at room temperature closed for 1 hour before passing in the confection.

What to Serve With

Harmonizes very well with pure black espresso coffee without sugar, which attenuates the concentrated sweetness of the condensed milk. On festive tables, it makes a traditional and balanced pair alongside coconut beijinhos.

Frequently Asked Questions

Como saber com precisão o ponto de enrolar do brigadeiro?

Passe a espátula no meio do fundo da panela abrindo um caminho; se a massa demorar para se juntar novamente, está no ponto certo.

Por que o brigadeiro fica puxa-puxa ou cristalizado depois de dias?

Isso ocorre por cozimento excessivo em fogo alto ou falta de manteiga; cozinhe em fogo baixo e mexa sem interrupções.

Posso substituir a manteiga por óleo vegetal?

Não é recomendado, pois a manteiga confere sabor lácteo, brilho e ponto de fusão que solidifica a massa ao esfriar.

Can I make brigadeiro in the microwave with the same recipe?

Yes, place in a high heat-resistant bowl and cook on high power for about 6 to 8 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes.
