Steps

1

Make Meringue: Beat egg whites using an electric mixer until foamy, and slowly add the sugar. Mix until glossy and soft (like whipped cream)
2

Sift the almonds and confectioner's sugar and combine with the meringue. Fold them about 30 times ("cut" the middle, then bring left side over to the right with a spatula)
3

Place the batter into a pastry bag with a round tip, and pipe disks onto a baking sheet. Let it rest for about 1 hour until dry, then bake for about 10 min at 285°F.
4

Make the Brigadeiro filling: cook the butter, cocoa, and condensed milk in a saucepan over medium heat for about 10 min (mixing constantly until thick)
5

Let the cookies and brigadeiro cool completely before filling, and enjoy your French Brazilian Macarons! 😀
