Instructions

For the Nesquick Chocolate Cake:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and adjust the rack to the center position. Butter a 9x13-inch pan and dust it with cocoa powder or flour.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, Nesquick chocolate powder, and baking powder. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, avocado oil, vanilla, and sugars for about 2 minutes until well combined.
  4. Pour in the warm milk and whisk until just combined.
  5. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add the dry ingredients and whisk until smooth.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
  7. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Once baked, remove from the oven and pour the Brigadeiro sauce over the cake. Spread it evenly and allow it to set.

For the Brigadeiro Sauce:

  1. In a saucepan, combine sweetened condensed milk, cream, unsalted butter, and sifted cocoa powder.
  2. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly to keep the mixture smooth.
  3. Continue stirring until the sauce thickens and leaves a trail when a spoon is run through it.
  4. Remove from heat and use as desired.
