Ingredients
- 2 ½ Cups Chopped Peanuts Lightly Salted
- 14 Oz Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 6 Tbsps Cocoa Powder
- 2 Tsp Espresso Powder
Instructions
- Put the peanuts in a food processor and chop them up into small pieces by pulsing it a few times.
- In a medium-sized pot, add the sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, espresso powder, and the chopped peanuts. Cook this mixture over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes. Keep stirring it so it doesn't stick to the bottom and burn.
- Spread out the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let it sit and cool down for about 15 minutes.
- Once it's cooled, put the baking sheet in the fridge for around 45 minutes until the mixture is cold and firm.
- Take 1 ½ tablespoons of the mixture and shape it into a ball with your hands. Do this with the rest of the mixture.
- Roll the balls into your favorite coating. We used powdered sugar, cocoa powder, or sprinkles. Enjoy these delicious treats!
Notes
- Don't pulse the peanuts too much or it will start turning into a paste.
- If you buy already chopped peanuts you can skip step 1 and jump to step 2.
- The mixture will start to pull away from the sides as it thickens. This is normal.
- Store them in an air tight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 3 months.
- We recommend you let it sit out on the counter for 5 minutes if it's frozen before eating.
