Trufas de Coco y Leche

(Coconut and Condensed Milk Truffles)

We made this at home with our 4, 5 and 6 year old daughters, easy and fun!


Ingredients:

2 packets "vino" biscuits (or other sweet biscuits)
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup of dessicated coconut.

Method:

1. Crush biscuits in a large bowl. Can be done by hand or with a mixer/stick blender on a low setting. Crush until the biscuits have formed a medium to fine crumble.

2. Add the can of condensed milk and mix thoroughly.

3. Take tablespoon-sized portions and roll into balls. Roll in the coconut.

4. Refrigerate (or eat them, whatever!)

Note: This is 2 Chilean sized packets of biscuits. If making this somewhere else, use 1 packet and then add more if necessary (you want a playdough texture).

Alternatives: Add raisins, choc chips, or nuts for additional flavour.

Enjoy!
