1 can of condensed milk (380g)
3 tablespoons of cocoa powder
50g of butter
400g of cookies
Nuts (optional for topping)
To get started, gather your ingredients, which are all easily found at the local grocery store.

This recipe allows plenty of room for creativity, so feel free to add whatever you fancy at the end.
In a mixing bowl, pour out the condensed milk.
Then, add three tablespoons of cocoa powder to the milk.
Using a whisk, gently mix the two ingredients until they combine into a smooth, chocolatey syrup.
Be sure to whisk slowly to avoid any splashing.
This should look like rich, velvety chocolate syrup once it’s fully mixed.
Now, melt the 50g of butter.
Pour the melted butter into the chocolate mixture and slowly stir it in.
Adding butter helps create a silky, luxurious texture in the mixture.
Keep stirring until the butter is fully combined with the cocoa and condensed milk mixture, creating a smooth consistency.
Set the chocolate mixture aside for a moment and turn to the cookies.
The type of cookie doesn’t matter too much—choose whichever ones you like best.
Crush the cookies until they’re a fine, crumb-like texture.
You can do this by using a rolling pin, food processor, or whatever method works for you.
Once they’re crushed, add the cookie crumbs to the chocolate mixture.
Now, using a wooden spoon, gently mix the crushed cookies into the chocolate mixture until it forms a dough-like paste.
To test if it’s the right consistency, squeeze a small portion in your hand.
It should hold together without being too stiff or crumbly.
Adjust as needed until you reach a smooth, cohesive texture.
Once your mixture is ready, grab a spoon to scoop out portions and use your hands to roll each portion into a small ball or whichever shape you prefer.
This step is where you can get creative with your presentation.
Whether round or square, shape each piece to your liking.
For a crunchy coating, crush some nuts in a food processor or blender, then roll each dessert ball in the crushed nuts.
If you want the nuts to stick better, drizzle a little honey over the balls before rolling them.
If nuts aren’t your thing, try rolling the balls in candy sprinkles, coffee powder, or even more cocoa powder for an extra touch of flavor.
With just a few simple ingredients, this no-bake dessert is easy to make and sure to please.
