Brigadeiro's

warning: These are very rich and yummy chocolately desserts!

Ingredients:
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 Tbsp butter
1-2 Tbsp cocoa powder (or however chocolately you prefer)

Heat the milk and butter on low-med heat and as it gets hotter, gradually add the chocolate powder. stirring constantly.
Continue stirring occasionally until the milk thickens. You want it to reduce to a good thickness that it doesn't run off the spoon.

Once it is thick, take off the heat and let it cool in the pan: now you are ready to form into balls.

grease your hands with butter and start forming into balls (about 1/2 in) and dip into chocolate sprinkles.
serve shortly after and enjoy!
