By far the most popular dessert in Brazil. You might be able to get away with a birthday party without cake but if there aren’t enough brigadeiros to fill the table you might find your guests leaving early.
The brigadeiro is a very simple Brazilian candy about the size of a golf ball. It is made with condensed milk chocolate powder and a generous amount of butter. The secret to the perfect brigadeiro is to stir the mixture non-stop for about 30 minutes over low heat until it can be rolled into a small ball and then covered with chocolate sprinkles.
When done right the brigadeiro is very sweet; but not so sweet that you can only take small bites. Made with surgical perfection the best ones are just sugary enough that you can eat dozens of them before you realize it might be a good idea to stop. Maybe after one… last… bite…
