"Brigadeiro" - Une petite explication!

Le Brigadeiro est une confiserie brésilienne typique des fêtes et apéros, inventé pendant la décade de 1940. Cette confiserie est à base de lait condensé, de chocolat et de beurre.

"Brigadeiro" - A little explanation!

Brigadeiro (portuguese for Brigadier;) is a famous brazilian chocolat bonbon, created in the 1940s and named after Brigadier Eduardo Gomes, whose shape is reminiscent of that of some varieties of chocolat truffles. It is a very popular candy in Brazil and it is usually served at any kind of party.

The candy is made by mixing sweetened condensed milk, butter and cocoa powder together. The mixture is then heated in a pan on the stove to obtain a smooth, sticky texture (that's the secret!). It usually rolled into balls which are covered in granulated chocolate; It can also be consumed unrolled, with a spoon or used as a topping or filling for cakes and other pastries.
