Classic Brazilian Chocolate Truffles

A quintessential Brazilian birthday party treat made from sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, and unsalted butter simmered together into a rich fudge, then rolled into bite-sized balls and coated in chocolate sprinkles.

Ingredients

• 1 can condensed milk
• 3 to 4 tbsp chocolate powder or cocoa powder
• 1 tbsp unsalted butter
• Chocolate sprinkles (optional)

Directions

1. Add the condensed milk, chocolate or cocoa powder, and unsalted butter into a saucepan.
2. Place over low heat and stir continuously with a wooden spoon until the mixture thickens and pulls away from the bottom of the pan.
3. Remove from the pan and let cool slightly before eating with a spoon or shaping into small balls.
4. Roll the shaped balls in chocolate sprinkles while still slightly warm so they adhere properly.
