Copyright © 2018 – All text, printables & photos are by Taryn Bloem – thesupermomsclub.com
Prep Time: 45 minutes – 1 hour
Yield: +/- 40 balls
Ingredients:
1⅓ cups icing sugar
½ cup cocoa powder
2 tsp instant coffee powder
120g finely crushed Marie biscuits
250ml condenced milk (just less than a standard 385g tin)
2 tsp vanilla essence
100g melted butter
Optional Extra: 2 Tbsp Amarula or Cape Velvet liqueur
chocolate vermicelli or crushed nuts (to coat)
Method:
Sift the icing sugar, cocoa powder and instant coffee powder together in a mixing bowl.
Crush the Marie biscuits until they are a fine powder. If you don’t have a blender, you can place them in a zip-lock bag and crush them using a rolling pin. Add them to the sifted ingredients and stir until nicely combined.
Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and add the condensed milk, vanilla essence and melted butter. If you would like to add the liqueur, add it at this stage. Beat with an electric mixer until all the ingredients have combined.
Place the mixture in the fridge for about 30 minutes (until it’s cold).
Once cold, roll it into balls (roughly a Tbsp. for each), and coat with cocoa powder, chocolate vermicelli or crushed nuts.
TIP: If the mixture becomes sticky, pop it into the freezer for a few minutes and it will make it easier to work with. The colder it is, the less sticky it will be.
Store the chocolate truffles in the fridge, and enjoy anytime… yummy!
