Bolo de brigadeiro

(Brigadeiro Cake)

Bolo de brigadeiro is a traditional cake that's a staple at birthday parties. The cake consists of three layers of tender and moist crumb, chocolate cake, and the fudgy brigadeiro filling and frosting that's made with a combination of condensed milk, table cream, margarine, chocolate powder, full fat milk, and cornstarch.


The base layer is made with sugar, butter, oil, eggs, vanilla, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and whole milk. Once assembled and frosted, this cake is decorated with chocolate sprinkles on all sides. Some people also like to decorate this decadent chocolate cake with a few brigadeiro balls on top.
