The top of the Brazilian brigadeiro after it was perfectly rolled and coated in chocolate sprinkles.
Ingredients for the brigadeiro
Here are the ingredients you will need to make the brigadeiro:

Sweetened condensed milk – the base of the brigadeiro; one can (usually about 395g) is perfect.
Unsweetened cocoa powder – use good quality cocoa for a rich chocolate flavor.
Butter – helps with the texture and prevents sticking; a small amount is enough.
Chocolate sprinkles – for rolling the brigadeiros once they're shaped.
Salt – just a pinch to balance the sweetness and enhance the chocolate taste.
