This Brazillian Chocolate Fudge Flan or Brigadeirao is a great all-year-round dessert. It is decadent, fudgy, rich, addictive, and gluten-free! An excellent dessert to serve on every occasion. Simply decorate it as needed.
INGREDIENTS :
- 4 large eggs, at room temperature
- 28 ounces sweetened condensed milk (or two 14-ounces cans)
- 1 c. unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 c. whole milk
- ½ c. sugar
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- ¼ c. chocolate sprinkles good quality
- ½ tbsp cornstarch
DIRECTIONS :
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees F or 180 degrees C. Using butter or non-stick cooking spray, grease an 8-inch (20 cm) ring pan. All over the pan, sprinkle the sugar. Set aside.
Step 2: In a blender, pulse all the ingredients except for the sprinkles until smooth. Into the prepared pan, pour the mixture. Place in the preheated oven and bake the bain-Marie for approximately 40 minutes. When done, take it out of the oven. Then, carefully run a knife on the edges and shift it on the rack to cool.
Step 3: Tent the dish and place it in the fridge to chill and set for at least 4 hours. After 4 hours, run a knife around and invert it onto a plate. Sprinkle with chocolate sprinkles on top and serve. You can even drizzle it with fudge on the edges if desired. Enjoy!
Notes:
BAIN-MARIE: In a large baking pan, pour in the hot water and put the ring pan inside, ensuring that the water comes halfway up the side of the pan.
You can store the brigadeirao in the fridge for up to 5 days, covered. I do not recommend freezing it. But you can try. First, adjust your freezer to 0 degrees F and slice the brigadeirao into quarters. In plastic bags, wrap the portions and freeze for up to 1 month. Before serving, thaw in the fridge.
