Two ingredient recipe for delicious chocolate truffles

As promised, the list of ingredients for this recipe is very clear:

• 240 g sweetened condensed milk

• 100 g cocoa powder (unsweetened) + a little more to shape

Also delicious:

Only two ingredients: You never guess how this cake is prepared.

Easy recipe: Here's how to prepare the two-ingredient chocolate truffles

Pour the

condensed milk

into a saucepan and bring to the boil, stirring well.

When the condensed milk froths and bubbles slightly, take the pan off the stove.

Pour the hot condensed milk into a bowl and sift the

cocoa powder

into it.

Mix the two ingredients well together to create a tough, fairly firm mass.

Line a rectangular baking dish with cling film and pour the cocoa mixture into it.

Smooth them evenly in the shape.

Put the mold

in the

refrigerator

for about

two hours

.

The cooling time makes the mass harder and then easier to cut and shape.

Sprinkle

cocoa powder on

a work surface, pour

the cooled cocoa mixture on it and cut it into even pieces (about 4x4 centimeters).

Sift some cocoa powder over it to keep them from sticking while molding.

You can now shape the individual pieces as you like, for example into rounded cubes or - the

classic truffle

shape

- into balls.

That's it.

The

finished chocolate truffles

can be arranged on a wooden board - if you want to serve immediately - or wrapped in a can.

After a while, the truffles soak up the cocoa powder, then you can sprinkle them with sifted cocoa again.

Aromatic, sweet, soft and melting in the mouth - what more could you want from a dessert or a

sweet for Christmas

?
