Instructions

1
misturar

Prepare the filling: Mix the sweetened condensed milk and powdered milk in a saucepan, dissolving well before turning on the heat.

1min 30s

Dica: Dissolve the powdered milk in the condensed milk before heating to prevent lumps.

2
cozinhar

Add the heavy cream to the sweetened condensed milk and powdered milk mixture. Turn the heat to low and stir continuously until it reaches the consistency of soft brigadeiro.

5min

Dica: The ideal point is when it thickens and slightly pulls away from the bottom of the pan.

3
esfriar

Transfer the filling to another bowl, cover the surface directly with plastic wrap, and set aside to cool until it is firm enough for piping.

30s

Dica: Transferring to another bowl speeds up cooling.

4
derreter

Melt the chocolate and butter together (with slightly warmed butter) in 30-second intervals in the microwave, stirring after each interval until completely smooth and glossy.

2min

Dica: Do not use cold butter, as it can cause the chocolate to seize.

5
misturar

In a large bowl, mix the whole eggs and sugar just until combined.

1min

Dica: Do not overbeat; brownies should have a denser, fudgier texture.

6
misturar

Fold the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the egg and sugar mixture, also adding the cocoa powder.

1min

Dica: Opt for cocoa powder if you don't want an overly sweet result.

7
misturar

Add the all-purpose flour to the batter and mix until you have a heavier, uniform batter.

1min
8
espalhar

Spread the brownie batter evenly in a greased and parchment-lined baking pan (approximately 8x12 inches / 20x30 cm).

1min

Dica: Parchment paper makes it easier to lift the baked brownie out of the pan.

9
assar

Bake the brownie in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for about 20 minutes, or until the surface looks slightly drier and crinkly.

20min
180°C

Dica: Watch the time closely so the brownie doesn't overbake.

10
esfriar

Allow the brownie to cool completely before proceeding with cutting.

11
cortar

Using round cutters of different sizes (e.g., 4 inches and 1 inch), cut large discs from the brownie, then use the smaller cutter to punch out the center hole, forming the wreath shape.

3min

Dica: If making many, line up the cut pieces sequentially to save time.

12
confeitar

Transfer the chilled filling to a piping bag fitted with a Wilton 1M tip and decorate the wreaths by piping rosettes.

5min

Dica: You can vary the styles of the rosettes and decorations.

13
decorar

Finish decorating the mini wreaths with berries (strawberries, fresh cherries, grapes), holiday sprinkles (red and green), and walnuts brushed with gold dust food coloring.

3min

Dica: If using fresh fruit, the shelf life is 5 days in a cool, airy place; it's best to decorate right before serving.
