Pan Brigadeiro

Directions

• In a thick-bottomed pan, add the condensed milk, chocolate powder and butter.
• Place the pan over low heat and stir continuously with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula. 
  Make sure to stir all the time to prevent the brigadeiro from sticking to the bottom of the pan and burning.
• The brigadeiro will be ready when the mixture starts to come away from the bottom of the pan and forms a dense dough, which can be shaped into small balls.
• Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool slightly before handling it. 
  If you prefer, you can grease your hands with a little butter to prevent the dough from sticking.
• With greased hands, make small balls with the brigadeiro dough and, if desired, roll them in chocolate sprinkles to decorate.
• Place the brigadeiros in paper molds or on a plate greased with butter to cool completely.
• If you prefer, you can let the dough cool in the fridge for a few minutes before rolling out the brigadeiros.
• Your pan brigadeiro is ready to be enjoyed!
