Ingredients
150 grams (1 and 1/2 cups) Digestive biscuits or graham crackers, crushed
50 grams (1/2 cup) desiccated coconut, plus extra for rolling
120 grams (3/4 cup) glace cherries, finely chopped
100 grams (2/3 cup) milk chocolate, chopped
150 grams (1 cup) dark or semi-sweet chocolate
250 ml (1 cup) sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Crush the biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin. Transfer to a large bowl and mix in the desiccated coconut.
- Finely chop the glace cherries and milk chocolate, then add to the bowl and mix well.
- Melt the dark chocolate in the microwave until smooth. Stir in the sweetened condensed milk until combined.
- Quickly pour the chocolate mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until evenly combined.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for 30 minutes to firm up.
- Using a teaspoon of mixture at a time, roll into balls and then roll each truffle in extra desiccated coconut.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Notes
- You can substitute Digestive biscuits with graham crackers or any plain sweet cookie.
- For a different finish, roll truffles in cocoa powder or dip in melted chocolate instead of coconut.
- These truffles freeze well. Thaw slightly before serving.
