How to Make the Recipe
Now, let’s dive into the fun part—making this delicious dessert!
- Start by melting the milk chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat it in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
- Once melted, pour the chocolate into a silicone egg mold, ensuring it coats the sides evenly. Place it in the fridge to set for about 30 minutes.
- While the chocolate is setting, let’s prepare the brigadeiro. In a saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, and butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until it thickens and starts to pull away from the sides of the pan.
- Once the brigadeiro is ready, let it cool slightly before filling the chocolate egg. Remove the chocolate from the mold and carefully fill each half with a generous spoonful of brigadeiro and a dollop of Nutella.
- Finally, press the two halves together and decorate the outside with chocolate sprinkles. Voila! Your Ovo de Páscoa de Colher is ready to impress!
Pro Tips for Making the Recipe
Here are some of my favorite tips to ensure your dessert turns out perfectly:
- Make sure to use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor.
- Don’t rush the melting process; it’s better to go slow to avoid burning the chocolate.
- Feel free to experiment with different fillings like peanut butter or fruit preserves!
- For a fun twist, add a sprinkle of sea salt on top of the Nutella before sealing the egg.
How to Serve
This dessert is perfect for sharing! Serve it in small bowls or on a beautiful platter for everyone to enjoy. Pair it with a cup of coffee or a glass of milk for a delightful treat. It’s also a great conversation starter at your Easter gathering!
Make Ahead and Storage
If you want to get a head start on your Easter preparations, you can make the chocolate shells and brigadeiro a day in advance. Just store them separately in airtight containers in the fridge. When you’re ready to assemble, simply fill the chocolate shells and enjoy! This dessert can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days, but I doubt it will last that long!
So, what are you waiting for? Gather your ingredients and let’s make this delicious Ovo de Páscoa de Colher Recheado com Brigadeiro e Nutella together! It’s a sweet way to celebrate Easter and create lasting memories with your loved ones.
