Cook Time:
A traditional candy from Brazil that is typically served at parties. It tastes like chocolate-caramel and is very easy to make!
Directions:
1
Over medium-low heat, stir vigorously the three ingredients.
2
Cook the mixture until it thickens enough to show the pan bottom during stirring (it will be firm enough to stay together and not spread) Pour into a greased dish and let cool to room temperature (or chill a few minutes in the fridge) Grease your hands with butter and take small amounts of candy and form into 1 1/2 inch balls.
3
Roll the balls in chocolate jimmies to decorate.
4
If the balls don't hold their shape, cook an additional 5 minutes until it thickens up more.

Ratings & Reviews:
Made these for the summer reading program during South America week. Used multi-colored sprinkles as they were so much cheaper. Children loved them. Thanks.
