    | 1. PREPARE: | 2. Cook over medium-low heat, stir vigorously the sweetened condensed milk, margarine and cocoa powder. | 3. Cook the mixture until it thickens enough to show the pan bottom during stirring. | 4. Pour the mixture in a greased dish and let it cool to room temperature. Take small amounts of the mixture with a teaspoon and make 1 ½ inch balls. | 5. Roll the balls over chocolate jimmies to decorate. | 6. Hint: Grease your hands with margarine to make the balls easily. | 7. If the balls don't hold the shape and flat down like coins, it means that you did not cook enough. Cook additional five minutes, take a small sample and dip it in a glass with cold water. If you cooked enough, this sample should hold the shape after cooling down in the water. | 8. The cheapest , low grade sweetened condensed milk is the best to make the brigadeiro because they have more starch on them, which helps the candy to hold the shape. | 9. In US, buy the sweet condensed milk from the Walmart brand "Great Value", cook this brand for 20 minutes in medium heat stirring continuously and your brigadeiro is with the right consistency. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
