Ingredients
  • 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • ½ cup dark chocolate, chopped
  • butter, for rolling
  • cocoa powder, for rolling
Directions
  1. Pour the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate into a small saucepan and place the pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Stirring constantly, cook the sweetened condensed milk until thickened. You’ll know it’s ready when you draw a line through the sweetened condensed milk and it takes a few seconds for the line to fill itself back in.
  3. Pour the cooked sweetened condensed milk into a wide, shallow dish (like a heat-proof baking dish) and allow it to cool.
  4. When the sweetened condensed milk has cooled, rub a small amount of butter on your hands and then roll the sweetened condensed milk into small balls. Roll each ball into cocoa powder.
  5. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
