Pizza Brigadeiro combines the Italian tradition of pizza with the quintessential Brazilian sweet, Brigadeiro. The origins of pizza in Brazil are rooted in Italian immigration, particularly to São Paulo, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Brigadeiro, on the other hand, was created in the 1940s and quickly became a national favorite. Pizza Brigadeiro is a modern fusion, reflecting Brazil's playful culinary innovation.

Pizza Brigadeiro offers a contrasting yet harmonious blend of sweet and slightly savory flavors. The richness of chocolate brigadeiro complements the soft, often slightly salty, pizza dough base.
The primary flavor is intense chocolate, coming from the brigadeiro, which is made from condensed milk, cocoa powder, butter, and chocolate sprinkles. The pizza dough provides a neutral base that absorbs some of the brigadeiro's moisture and sweetness. The buttery richness of the brigadeiro balances the typically yeasty flavor of the pizza dough.

Brigadeiro Consistency
The brigadeiro should be creamy but not too runny, to prevent the pizza base from becoming soggy. Cook the brigadeiro until it reaches a soft, dropping consistency off a spoon.
Dough Preparation
Use a slightly thicker pizza dough to support the weight of the brigadeiro and prevent it from becoming overly thin or breaking. Pre-bake the dough slightly before adding the topping.
Chocolate Sprinkles
Add the chocolate sprinkles (granulado) after baking the pizza, when the brigadeiro is still warm, so they adhere properly and retain their texture.
Serving Temperature
Pizza Brigadeiro is best served warm, allowing the brigadeiro to remain soft and melty. Avoid refrigerating the pizza, as this can harden the brigadeiro.
