Brigadeiro Fit is a low-carb twist on the classic Brazilian dessert, combining rich cocoa flavor with a healthy touch. This guilt-free treat is perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth without compromising your dietary goals.

Ingredients

• Cocoa powder - 2 tablespoons
• Almond flour - 3 tablespoons
• Erythritol - 2 tablespoons
• Coconut oil - 1 tablespoon
• Unsweetened almond milk - 2 tablespoons

Steps

1. In a medium saucepan, combine the cocoa powder, almond flour, erythritol, coconut oil, almond milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
2. Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly until it thickens and starts to pull away from the sides of the pan, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Remove from heat and let it cool for a few minutes until it is manageable to handle.
4. Once cooled, use your hands to form small balls (about 1 inch in diameter) from the mixture.
