Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for the mixture)
- 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for coating)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the cocoa powder, powdered sugar (for the mixture), graham cracker crumbs, and salt.
In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until the mixture forms a sticky dough.
Using your hands, scoop out about 1 tablespoon of the dough and roll it into a smooth ball. Repeat until all the dough is used.
Place the powdered sugar (for coating) in a shallow bowl. Roll each ball in the powdered sugar until fully coated.
Arrange the finished snowballs on a tray or plate, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
