No-cook chocolate balls

I am planning to make pizza for dinner tonight. This is the first time I will be making pizza at home from scratch and I am pretty excited. Hope it comes out well. For dessert, I wanted to make something simple. Did not feel like baking a cake or making any of our Indian sweets like gajar ka halwa or gulab jamun etc. Then I remembered that Mom once made this yummy dessert with condensed milk and drinking chocolate powder and it required no cooking. It was a long time ago and she had forgotten the recipe but luckily I had it in my recipe collection. The chocolate balls were ready in 10 minutes.

No-cook Chocolate Balls (makes about 20 small balls)



Marie biscuits, 13-15
Condensed milk, 1/2 cup
Drinking chocolate powder, 2 tbsps
Dessicated coconut, about 1/4 cup

Mix the condensed milk and chocolate powder in a bowl. Keep aside. Put the biscuits in a ziploc bag and crush to a coarse powder with a rolling pin. Add this to the condensed milk and mix well. Make into small balls. If the mixture is not thick enough add more crushed biscuits. Roll the balls in dessicated coconut till the coconut sticks onto the ball. Chill or eat as it is.
