📝 Ingredients
Serves 5🥛Dairy & Eggs(2)
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons of melted butter (21 g)
- 2 tablespoons of milk (30 ml)
🫙Pantry Staples(4)
- 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder (30 ml)
- 4 tablespoons of flour (60 ml)
- powdered sugar for rolling
- 3 tablespoons of sugar (45 ml)
👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
Add flour, cocoa powder, sugar, melted butter, and milk to a bowl and mix to form a dough.
- 2
Make 5 dough balls and roll each one in powdered sugar.
💡 Pro Tips
- ✓Chill your dough for 15-20 minutes before rolling into balls - this firms the fats and prevents sticky, misshapen bites that won't hold their structure.timing15-20 minutes
- ✓Use Dutch-process cocoa powder instead of natural cocoa for no-bake recipes because it has a pH of 7-8 versus 5.3-5.8, creating a smoother, less acidic chocolate flavor without baking's heat to mellow natural cocoa's sharpness.ingredientpH 7-8 vs 5.3-5.8
- ✓Roll balls in powdered sugar immediately after shaping while your hands are still slightly warm - the residual heat helps the sugar adhere better than rolling cold, set balls.technique
- ✓Use a 1:4 ratio of milk to flour maximum to prevent soggy texture, as no-bake doughs rely on proper moisture balance since there's no evaporation from baking to correct overly wet mixtures.ingredient1:4 ratio
