An easy truffle made with powdered milk. My mom made this with us when we were growing up, and now I do it with my kids. Molds easily like playdough into any shape you wish. Last time I brought this candy over to a kid party, adults ate it before kids could even get to it. Read more See less
Ingredients
- 9.6 oz. powdered dry milk (about 5 cups) shopping list
- 1/2 cup water shopping list
- 1 cup sugar shopping list
- 3 tbsp. cocoa powder shopping list
- 200 gr. butter (almost 2 sticks) shopping list
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract shopping list
- 1 cup chopped walnuts shopping list
- creme wafers, crushed, for rolling the candy in shopping list
How to make it
- In a medium saucepan add water, sugar, cocoa powder and butter. Simmer and stir on low heat until sugar dissolves and butter is melted.
- Take off the heat and stir in vanilla extract and walnuts.
- Let cool for a few minutes, then mix in powdered milk one cup at a time. Mix well.
- Refrigirate this mixture for about 60 minutes. The mixture will harden.
- Remove from fridge. Use a tablespoon to scoop out little balls. Mold them into pyramids and roll in crushed creme wafers. Put in mini cupcake paper cups (optional). Store in the fridge. Candy is better the next day, once it sat in the fridge overnight.
- *Note: This will be very easy to mold into any desired shape. Makes about 60 candies, so can be cut in half.

Julia,
Thanks so much for this recipe! Sounds good enough for a five from me. I'm going to share this with my friend who hosts a children's "cookie party" every holiday season if you don't mind.
