Gather @cocoa powder{3%tbsp} and @chocolate sprinkle{100%g}.

Stir the @condensed milk{1%can}, cocoa, @butter{15%g} and a small pinch of @salt{} together in a heavy saucepan over medium-low heat.

Cook, stirring constantly and scraping the bottom, for 10–12 minutes until the mixture thickens and pulls away from the pan when you tilt it. ~{12%minutes}

Scrape onto a buttered plate and cool to room temperature, then chill 30 minutes. ~{30%minutes}

With buttered hands, roll teaspoons of the fudge into balls.

Roll each ball through the chocolate sprinkles until fully coated and nest it in a little paper cup.

Serve at room temperature — or skip the rolling entirely and eat it soft with a spoon, 'de colher', as Brazilians often do.
