Sweetened Condensed Milk is used in many Brazilian desserts. Brigadeiro is one on them. Condensed Milk is made by adding sugar to whole milk then removing water from the milk to about one-half of its original volume. You can purchase condensed milk in most groceries store in the United States. Since condensed milk is not often used in the American recipes, if you ask about it to an American friend or to an employee at the groceries store, they might not know what you are talking about. In that case, ask where the “Evaporated Milk” cans are, you might find the condensed milk right by it. You can also look for the condensed milk in the isle reserved for ethnic food or Mexican food.
