Here’s how to make the easiest traditional Brazilian Brigadeiro recipe: First, set a large pot over medium heat on the stovetop. Add the sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, butter, salt, and any flavor add-ins. Mix well. Stir constantly as you cook the fudge so the condensed milk doesn’t burn, about 12-18 minutes.
Brigadeiro is a decadent bite-sized Brazilian chocolate confection that’s similar to a chocolate truffle, but with a fudgier texture. This version is keto, and every bit as rich and delicious! Add all ingredients to a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Brigadeiros (singular. Brigadeiro, pronunciation bree-gah-DAY-roh) are a traditional Brazilian chocolate candy. The candy emerged in the mid 1940's, in the state of São Paulo, yet is popular all over Brazil. They are must-have treats at just about any birthday party, and many other events. The name brigadeiro means "Brigadier."
While chocolate sprinkles are the most common topping for brigadeiros, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, coconut flakes, or chopped nuts and dried fruits are suitable substitutes. Although brigadeiros are gluten-free, they contain dairy.
