Put the brigadeiro frosting on the cooled cake, spreading it evenly with a spatula. The icing will be thick and sticky, making a fancy topping.
Put lots of chocolate sprinkles on top of the frosting, making sure to cover the whole surface. This not only gives the cake more texture but also makes it look better.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy!
Cut the cake into square or rectangular pieces before serving. The delicious chocolate cake with creamy brigadeiro frosting is a rich and indulgent treat that melts in your mouth.
You can keep any leftover cake in a sealed container at room temperature for 3 days or in the fridge for a week.
Advice for Making the Best Brigadeiro Cake
Use high-quality cocoa powder: The quality of cocoa powder greatly affects the taste of the cake and frosting. Choose Dutch-processed or high-quality unsweetened cocoa for the best outcome.
Avoid baking the cake for too long: Watch it closely while it’s in the oven. Baking a cake for too long can make it dry. It is ready when a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Add some chopped nuts or shredded coconut on top of the cake along with chocolate sprinkles for extra texture and flavor.
Have fun and enjoy baking! 🌟
