A traditional candy from Brazil that is typically served at parties. It tastes like chocolate-caramel and is very easy to make!
SERVES 40 , 40 candies
Ingredients
-
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 3 tablespoons cocoa
- chocolate sprinkles
Directions
1
Over medium-low heat, stir vigorously the three ingredients.2
Cook the mixture until it thickens enough to show the pan bottom during stirring (it will be firm enough to stay together and not spread) Pour into a greased dish and let cool to room temperature (or chill a few minutes in the fridge) Grease your hands with butter and take small amounts of candy and form into 1 1/2 inch balls.3
Roll the balls in chocolate jimmies to decorate.4
If the balls don't hold their shape, cook an additional 5 minutes until it thickens up more.

I love this recipe! I have made it several times and it is easy and tasty. Last time I subbed peanut butter (dietary reasons) for the butter and it tasted great. Thanks for the recipe!

VERY simple recipe, VERY good taste!!! VERY good dessert! I love this. I made it and served it to friends and family, and it is a hit. We also have 4 girls here from Brazil, and they said this is authentic. Actually, I must admit that THEY made this, as I stood back and watched. It is VERY easy. 
Will make again!
