Sew Spoiled

You have to love a recipe with only 3 ingredients!! My husband and I watch a show on desserts and learned how to make  Brigadeiro from Brazil. They look so amazing and easy to make that we had to try it. We both enjoy cooking together and we thought cooking  Brigadeiro with the kids would be fun!! The three simple ingredients are...  3 Table Spoons of cocoa,  1 can (14 ounces) of sweet  and condense milk and 1 tablespoon of butter. Optional toppings: sprinkles, nuts or powder sugar. That is it!! Step 1: Place the ingredients in a medium pan, over low heat and stir constantly! Mix until when you stir you can see the bottom of the pan.  Step 2: Put the mixer in a separate container to cool and rest.  Step 3: Cover your hands in butter. Scoop and roll mixer into small balls, then be creative and roll ball into toppings.  Enjoy!
