Brigadeiro, or Brazilian fudge balls are a traditional dessert recipe that are so easy to make! Only a few ingredients are needed to make this delicious recipe that is perfect for sharing!

Yields: approximately 15 fudge balls

Ingredients

  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk (approx. 14 ounces)
  • 3 tbsp. cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp. butter
  • 1/2 cup (approx) chocolate sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Combine the condensed milk, cocoa powder, and butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. 
  2. Stir continuously for approximately 10 minutes until the mixture thickens to a thicker consistency than syrup. While stirring, ensure that you are scraping the bottom of the pan, as you do not want any of the fudge to burn.
  3. When thick, transfer the fudge to a bowl and cool in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
  4. Once cooled, spoon a small amount of fudge, less than 1 tbsp. worth, and roll it in your hands to shape it into a ball. Roll the ball in the chocolate sprinkles until fully coated.
  5. Serve right away, or store fudge balls in an air-tight container for up to 3 days.
