- Crush biscuits in food processor.
- Add cocoa powder and whizz for a few seconds until combined with biscuits.
- Turn biscuits into mixing bowl and add condensed milk. Mix until well combined.
- Roll mixture into small balls and coat with coconut. This is easier with two people (one rolling the balls and the other coating with coconut). Tip: To stop mixture sticking to your hands, run them under the tap for a few seconds, then roll.
- An alternative to making the balls is to lightly coat a slice tin with half of the coconut and press mixture into a slice. Coat with remaining coconut. A quick and easy slice if you're running short of time.
Tip
Can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for a week or two (if they last that long).
