Ingredients

  • 40 g unsweetened cocoa powder (⅓ cup)
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz)
  • 2 tbsp margarine (plus more to grease the plate and hands)
  • chocolate sprinkles

Instructions

  • Prepare the fudge: In a saucepan, combined cocoa powder, margarine and condensed milk. Mix well over low heat until you can run a spatula through the middle and the gap only slowly closes
  • Let it cool: Grease a plate so the fudge doesn't stick, then spread the chocolate fudge to let it cool. The cooler it is, the easier it is to shape the balls so we recommend leaving it in the fridge for a while.
  • Roll and sprinkle: Slightly grease your hands, then scoop about 1 tsp of chocolate fudge in your hands and roll it into a balls. Coat with sprinkles and enjoy!
