I guess you can call it poor planning, but I almost forgot to post these beautiful brigadeiros to celebrate the World Cup.
These were made with Belgium white chocolate with green and yellow sprinkles, of course.
Enjoy!
White Chocolate Brigadeiros
Ingredients:
- 1 14-oz can sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
- 1 1/4 cup Belgium White Chocolate, chopped
- 1/4 cup yellow sprinkles
- 1/4 cup green sprinkles
You’ll also need mini paper or foil candy cups.
Combine condensed milk, heavy cream, butter, corn syrup in a medium-heavy saucepan. Place the pan over medium heat and stir until the butter dissolves. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low, add chocolate and keep stirring until the candy comes together in one piece, about 8 to 10 minutes. When mixture is ready, it will pull together into one soft piece.
Pour mixture into a bowl. (don’t scrape the pan; leave any residue behind) Let cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate until very firm and completely chilled, at least 4 hours or overnight.
When the candy is chilled and firm, use a teaspoon to form the candy into small balls about 1 inch in diameter. Roll each ball in sprinkles until evenly coated. Place the Brigadeiros into mini paper or foil candy cups to serve.
