Ingredients

• Servings: 30
• 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (try droste-in the red box)
• granulated sugar, to roll them in after and make them pretty

Recipe

• 1 stir together milk, chocolate and butter over medium-low heat until you can create a ditch in the bottom of the pan when you run the spoon through the center of the mixture. it should stay apart for a second or two.
• 2 stir gently to keep from scorching. it should look like a thick paste.
• 3 let it cool off just long enough for you to be able to touch it.
• 4 oil your hands with vegetable oil a little so you don't make an unholy mess.
• 5 shape into tiny spheres and roll them in the granulated chocolate. you can also put them into tiny cupcake holders (silver ones look the best) for presentation.
