Clown Poo, better known as brigadeiros, is a very easy treat to make.  It comes to us from South American, Brazil specifically.  Straight from the Carnival parades!  It takes about 20 minutes to make and will be the hit of the neighborhood.

Ingredients:

• 1 Tablespoon butter
• 1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
• Colored sprinkles
• Waxed paper

Directions:

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine butter and condensed milk. Cook the mixture until it thickens enough to show the pan bottom during stirring (approx. 10 minutes). Pour the mixture onto the wax paper and let it cool to room temperature.  

Now you are ready to form the little balls. Remember to grease your hands with margarine first!Roll it over sprinkles and place the balls in candy cups to help them keep their shape while they cool completely.
