8 steps

Ingredients

  • 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (try Droste-in the red box)
  • granulated sugar, to roll them in after and make them pretty

Directions

  1. 1
    Stir together milk, chocolate and butter over medium-low heat until you can create a ditch in the bottom of the pan when you run the spoon through the center of the mixture.
  2. 2
    It should stay apart for a second or two.
  3. 3
    Stir gently to keep from scorching.
  4. 4
    It should look like a thick paste.
  5. 5
    Let it cool off just long enough for you to be able to touch it.
  6. 6
    Oil your hands with vegetable oil a little so you don't make an unholy mess.
  7. 7
    Shape into tiny spheres and roll them in the granulated chocolate.
  8. 8
    You can also put them into tiny cupcake holders (silver ones look the best) for presentation.
