Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 can (14 oz / 397 g) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup (150 g) chocolate chips
Coating/Garnish:
- 1/2 cup (50 g) cocoa powder
Optional Enhancements:
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Combine sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips in a medium saucepan, creating a smooth, rich mixture over low heat while stirring constantly to prevent scorching.
- Cook the mixture for approximately 10-12 minutes, continuously stirring until it thickens and starts to pull away from the sides of the pan, forming a dense, fudge-like consistency.
- Remove from heat and mix in vanilla extract and salt for enhanced flavor depth, stirring until fully incorporated.
- Transfer the warm chocolate mixture to a shallow dish and refrigerate for 2-3 hours, allowing it to firm up and become easily moldable.
- Once chilled, use a small spoon or melon baller to scoop out portions of the mixture and quickly roll between palms to create uniform, smooth truffle balls.
- Sift cocoa powder into a separate shallow bowl, then gently roll each truffle in the powder, ensuring complete and even coating.
- Place coated truffles on a parchment-lined tray, maintaining slight separation to prevent sticking.
- Refrigerate truffles for an additional 30 minutes to set the coating and enhance their firm texture.
- Serve chilled or at cool room temperature, presenting these decadent treats on a elegant serving platter.
Notes
- Choose high-quality chocolate chips for a richer, more intense truffle flavor that elevates the entire dessert.
- Monitor heat carefully while cooking to prevent burning, using low and slow technique for smooth, glossy consistency.
- Chill truffles thoroughly before coating to ensure they hold shape and don’t crumble during rolling process.
- Experiment with coating variations like crushed nuts, shredded coconut, or powdered sugar for diverse texture and taste experiences.
