Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 250g plain biscuits
- 50g butter
- 2 blocks Caramilk chocolate (180g each)
- 1 can condensed milk (395g)
Toppings and Coatings
- Desiccated coconut (for rolling)
- Chopped nuts (for rolling)
- Sprinkles (for rolling)
- Melted chocolate (for coating)
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (to thin melted chocolate)
Instructions
- Crush biscuits: Use a food processor to crush the plain biscuits into fine crumbs, ensuring there are no large pieces for a smooth truffle texture.
- Melt butter and chocolate: In a large glass bowl, melt the butter, then add the broken pieces of Caramilk chocolate. Heat in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth.
- Combine mixture: Stir in the condensed milk and crushed biscuits into the melted chocolate and butter mixture. Mix thoroughly. It’s easier to roll when the mixture is still warm; if it cools too much, gently rewarm it in the microwave.
- Shape truffles: Using a tablespoon, scoop some mixture and roll it between your hands to form small balls. The warmth of your hands will help achieve smooth, even shapes.
- Roll in toppings: Roll each ball in your chosen toppings such as desiccated coconut, chopped nuts, or sprinkles. Place them on a lined baking tray to cool and set.
- Optional chocolate coating: For an extra indulgent finish, make slightly smaller balls and chill in the fridge for 15 minutes to firm. Meanwhile, melt additional chocolate with a teaspoon of coconut oil to thin it. Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate using two forks to coat and allow excess to drip off. Return to the tray to set.
- Storage: Store finished truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will keep fresh and delicious for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
- If the mixture becomes too hard to roll, gently reheat it to soften.
- Using a food processor makes crushing biscuits quick and fine for better texture.
- Choose your preferred toppings or combine several for variety.
- The coconut oil helps the melted chocolate to be smoother and easier to coat.
- These truffles can be made ahead and refrigerated for parties or gifts.
- Ensure truffles are fully cooled before storing to maintain texture.
