You already know that the Brigadeiro is the sweetie with the face of Brazil, right? But that he is one of the darlings here in Costa do Sauípe, you didn't know yet. And we like this sweet treat so much that we have a very special recipe for you. In this version you can make and gift someone special with the special label of the Sabores do Brasil festival.

So come on, there are some important points at the time of preparation, such as the cooking time, the ideal temperature, the ingredients and even the way to stir the brigadeiro and here you will find everything explained to you.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon of Butter

1 can of condensed milk

4 tablespoons of chocolate powder

1- First Tip

Take care to choose the ingredients well, so your brigadeiro will always have a soft and tasty taste and one of the tips is to use butter and not margarine.

2- Softness when mixing ingredients

Melt the butter and dilute the chocolate powder, this way it will facilitate mixing with the condensed milk, leaving it as homogeneous as possible!

2- Surprise in the Details

To make the chocolate flavor more striking, add a pinch of salt to your recipe and if you are a coffee fan you can replace it with a pinch of soluble coffee, it has a super Brazilian and authentic flavor.

3- Best Utensils

To prevent the utensil from melting in the pot, the ideal is to use a wooden or silicone spoon, in addition, they are safer and prevent burns.

4- The pot, the fire, the way of stirring and the point

What will make all the difference on the point is the use of the pot, the fire used and the way to stir, so here the tips are:

Give preference to thick-bottomed pans, as this way the heat will be the same all over the bottom of the pot, which will make your brigadeiro cook evenly without burning the bottom or sides.

Essentially use low heat, cook slowly, stirring constantly, distributing the heat evenly, so your brigadeiro will never taste like burnt.

The way to stir a brigadeiro to make the recipe perfect is evenly, passing through so that the dough does not stand still and does not give it a sugary appearance.

5- Reserve and roll

When you notice the Brigadeiro detaching from the bottom of the pot, place it in a container and cover with plastic wrap so as not to create a film on the Brigadeiro. After cooling, roll it up with the jam of your choice.
