Get ready for a chocolate overload with this Brazilian Brigadeiro Dump Cake! It's rich, decadent, and will make you feel like you're partying in Rio with every bite.
1 9" x 13" baking dish or pan (or a 12-inch round pan)
1 saucepan
Ingredients
1boxchocolate cake mixwe’re keeping it easy here, folks
1cansweetened condensed milkAKA the nectar of the dessert gods
1/2cupheavy creambecause we deserve richness
1/4cupcocoa powderlet’s make it really chocolatey
1/4cupunsalted butterbecause cake should melt in your mouth, not in your hand
1teaspoonvanilla extractjust enough to keep things classy
1/2cupchocolate sprinklesor as I like to call them, edible confetti
Instructions
Preheat that oven to 350°F (175°C). While it’s heating up, grease a 9x13 inch baking dish or a 12-inch round cake pan—because nobody likes scraping cake off the pan.
Dump the chocolate cake mix straight into the baking dish. No mixing bowls here, just dump and go!
In a saucepan, stir together the sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream, cocoa powder, and butter. Keep stirring like your life (or at least your dessert) depends on it, for about 10 minutes. When it thickens, give yourself a high-five and take it off the heat.
Stir in that vanilla extract and then pour this heavenly chocolate mixture right over the cake mix.
Now for the fun part—sprinkle chocolate sprinkles all over the top. More sprinkles = more joy.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the cake is set. Try to resist diving in right away—it’ll smell amazing, but patience, my friend.
