Ingredients
- 1 bag of dry biscuits (250 g)
- 1 cup of milk (250 ml)
- 50g of butter
- 4 tablespoons of cocoa powder
- 4 tablespoons of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 200g of dark chocolate pieces
Preparation steps
- In a food processor, grind the biscuits until they reach a sandy texture. Pour the powder into a medium-sized bowl.
- In a small saucepan, pour the milk, add the butter, cocoa powder, sugar, vanilla extract, and chocolate. Place over low heat and heat, stirring regularly, until melted and smooth.
- Gently pour the chocolate mixture over the ground biscuits. Mix thoroughly until a smooth paste forms. Let it rest for about 10 minutes so the biscuits fully absorb the mixture.
- Place the mixture in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, which will make it easier to form the balls.
- Remove the mixture from the refrigerator and shape into balls of the desired size using your hands or a spoon.
- Coat the balls with one of your favorite toppings: shredded coconut, colorful candies, ground nuts, ground pistachios, or any other gourmet decoration of your choice.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
For a pareve version (without milk or butter), replace the milk with 400 ml of coconut cream and increase the amount of biscuits to approximately 375 g (1 1/2 packs). The preparation remains exactly the same, and you'll get the same delicious result! You can also coat your balls in milk chocolate by melting 200 g of milk chocolate with a drizzle of castor oil for a luxurious finish.
A cup corresponds to 250 ml when I mention "cup" in my recipes. Here are two tables that will help you with your conversions if you don't have a cup!
