"Potato" Cookie Balls with Condensed Milk and Cocoa

Homemade chocolate truffles! Make this simple, delicious treat! My mother used to make these "potatoes" for the holidays when I was a kid. Probably all moms back then knew how to do it? :) I learned once I had children of my own; before that I never even imagined the process could be so simple. Depending on the size, these sweet "potatoes" can be called candies or little cakes. And you can decorate them all sorts of ways — with nuts, with chocolate glaze, and over the glaze, say, colored sprinkles. The kids love these "potatoes," and I always let them do the decorating!

  • Here's how we'll make this sweet treat: 1. Crush the cookies into crumbs. You can do this in a blender or just put the cookies in a plastic bag and crush them right in it with a rolling pin. Pour the cookie crumbs into a bowl. 2. Add the cocoa to the cookies and mix. 2. Add the softened butter to the bowl (take it out of the refrigerator ahead of time). 3. Pour in the condensed milk and mix the sweet mixture well until smooth. 4. Form balls from the mixture. The size is entirely up to you. 5. Put the balls in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. These sweet "potatoes" keep in the refrigerator for several days, though they're unlikely to last that long! 6. Before serving, roll the "potatoes" in powdered sugar. Enjoy your tea time!
