Recipe by: Joan Repato
Level of Difficulty: Easy
Prep Time: 10 Minutes
Cook Time: 15 Minutes
Yield: 20 Large brigadeiros, or 25 small brigadeiros
Ingredients:
397g (or 1 14oz can) Sweetened condensed milk
15g Unsalted butter
1 Pinch Fine sea salt
100g Vermicelli White Sugar Décor
100g White Sugar Pearls, optional
Special Equipment & Décor:
Hand whisk
Heat-proof rubber spatula
Buttered plate, loaf pan, or storage container
#60 Stainless steel cookie scoop
Paper candy cups
Instructions:
1.) Place sweetened condensed milk and butter in a saucepan. Cook on low heat, mixing with a hand whisk until mixture is warm, butter has completely melted, and has fully combined with the condensed milk.
2.) Add Belgian White Chocolate. Continue mixing with your hand whisk until chocolate has completely melted and mixture has thickened, about 15 minutes.
3.) Add Prosecco Flavor Paste. Continue to whisk for another minute until flavor paste is fully incorporated into the mixture.
4.) Remove from heat. With a rubber spatula, transfer mixture onto a buttered plate, loaf pan or storage container.
5.) Place container in the refrigerator for an hour to let it cool off and set. *See recipe notes
6.) Remove from the refrigerator. Using a spoon or #60 stainless steel cookie scoop (about a tablespoon in size), scoop out your brigadeiros. This will yield about 20 larger brigadeiros, or 25 smaller ones.
7.) Place White Vermicelli and white sugar pearls (if desired) in a small bowl. Separate and place 20-25 paper candy cups on a sheet pan or serving platter.
8.) Moisten your hands with a little water. Roll each piece between your hands to create a nice, round ball.
9.) Roll each ball into the White Vermicelli or white sugar pearls, coating the entire ball. Transfer into a paper candy cup. Repeat until all pieces have been rolled and coated. Serve and enjoy!
