Ingredients:

  • 1 can of sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tbsp of unsalted butter
  • 3 tbsp of milk chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp of semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp of cocoa powder
  • Chocolate sprinkles

Utensils

  • Small cupcake cases (like, very small, the candies are between 3 to 5 centimeters in diameter)
  • Whisk
  • Silicon spatula (or anything similar to remove the candy from the pot without scratching it)
  • Small bowl (for chocolate sprinkles)

Directions:

  1. Melt butter in pot (low heat).
  2. Add the whole can of sweetened condensed milk, the chocolate chips and the cocoa powder.
  3. Mix on low heat for about 20 minutes. It will be ready when it stops bubbling and you feel resistance as well as it does not stick to the bottom of the pot anymore.
  4. Coat a plate with butter, transfer the mixture to this plate, and let it cool in room temperature for 1 to 2 hours.
  5. Using a spoon, make small balls and dip them into a bowl with chocolate sprinkles.
  6. Place the candy into the small cupcake case and serve.
