Brigadeiro is a popular Brazilian delicacy, created in the mid-20th century in honor of Brazilian military leader Brigadier Eduardo Gomes. This dessert looks impressive and festive, and consists of just four ingredients—it's perfect for making at home! These dense balls of condensed milk, cocoa, and butter are rolled in chocolate sprinkles and served like candy. To make it easier, serve the brigadeiro with spoons rather than balls.
