Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
I suggest using kitchen scales for accurate calculations. So, sift baby dry milk mixture into a bowl. Sifting is necessary in order to make sure that there are no unnecessary impurities in the mixture.
Step 2:
In the same way, through a strainer with small holes, sift 50 grams of cocoa powder into a bowl. At first it may seem that there is a lot of cocoa, but it is not! It will be just right. The remaining amount will remain for sprinkling sweets. If you want to completely roll the candy in cocoa, but it's not easy to sprinkle, like me, then you will need more cocoa. I think, in this case, you will need about 20 grams of cocoa in addition.
Step 3:
Add powdered sugar and vanilla. I added vanilla sugar, thinking that since there is not much of it, it will have time to dissolve. But, unfortunately, this did not happen, and the sugar creaked a little on my teeth. This is not critical for me, but it will be unacceptable for many. Therefore, I advise you to use only vanillin.
Step 4:
Then add soft butter. It is soft, not liquid. In order to achieve the desired consistency of butter, simply remove a piece from the refrigerator about twenty minutes before the start of cooking sweets and leave it at room temperature.
Step 5:
Mix the mixture thoroughly with a tablespoon until smooth. The consistency of the mixture on the candy should resemble a soft one! cake "Potato".
Step 6:
Now it remains only to form candies. I chose a spherical shape and an average size of sweets. I collected about the same amount of the mixture (half a tablespoon each) and rolled the balls with my hands. As a result, I got exactly 15 neat candies. Put them in the refrigerator for an hour, after which they can be served to the table, sprinkled with cocoa powder through a strainer.
You can also make candies in the form of pyramids, or distribute them in special silicone molds for sweets. Frozen, the candies will come out of the silicone mold well and turn out to be smooth, one to one.
I really liked these candies, they are moderately sweet, very chocolate and even reminded me of the taste of condensed milk.
Bon appetit!
