Brigadeiro

This is a very popular recipe in Brazil. But, this particular version was taught to me by a Brazilian friend of mine. It’s like a very rich, fudge brownie.

Difficulty: Easy

Servings: varies

Ingredients

1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
1 Tbsp. butter
3 Tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
chocolate wafer cookies (Chocolate Teddy Grahams work great)

Directions

Combine the condensed milk, butter, and cocoa powder over medium high heat. Cook, stirring constantly until you can see the bottom of the pot when you scrape the mixture. Immediately pour over the broken chocolate wafer cookies and chill until set. Break into pieces and enjoy.
