Last bite on earth: chocolate brigadeiro
I'm a brazilian chef and I make brigadeiros for parties here in NYC. I agree with my fellow carioca, the closest american product to use in brigadeiro is Nesquick. I wouldn't recomend cocoa powder because the one that we use in Brazil has some sugar, and it make a big diference in the final result.
About the other flavours I may recomend:
- Beijinho, changing 2 tablespoons of chocolate for 2 tablespoons of grounded coconut (use grounded coconut as topping)
- Bicho de Pé, changing 2 tablespoons of chocolate for 1 egg yolk + 1 teaspoon of strawberry jello dissolved in 1 tablespoon of hot water (use crystal suggar as topping) - the color ir amazing!
- Any nuts, for example, pistachios, changing 2 tablespoons of chocolate for 2 tablespoons of grounded pistachios (use grounded nuts as topping)
after your first brigadeiro you'll become addicted
