A delightful twist on the classic Brazilian brigadeiro, these chocolate fudge balls are a treat for any occasion.
Combine the sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, and butter in a saucepan.
Stir constantly to prevent the mixture from sticking to the pan.
Cook the mixture over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens and pulls away from the sides of the pan.
You'll know it's ready when you can see the bottom of the pan as you stir.
Transfer the mixture to a greased plate and let it cool to room temperature.
Cooling makes it easier to handle and shape the mixture.
Grease your hands with butter, take small portions of the mixture, and roll them into balls.
Greased hands prevent the mixture from sticking to your skin.
Roll the balls in chocolate sprinkles to coat them evenly.
Gently press the sprinkles onto the balls to ensure they stick well.
Serve the chocolate fudge balls on a platter and enjoy.
These treats are perfect for sharing with friends and family.
