Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams white chocolate
- 150 grams hazelnuts
- 100 grams crushed digestive biscuits
- 200 grams condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 50 grams unsweetened desiccated coconut
- 25 pieces whole hazelnuts (for center of balls)
Instructions
Begin by lightly toasting the hazelnuts (both crushed and whole) in a dry pan over medium heat for 3-4 minutes until fragrant. Let them cool completely.
Melt the white chocolate using a double boiler or microwave in short 20-second bursts, stirring between each interval to prevent burning. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed hazelnuts, crushed digestive biscuits, and desiccated coconut.
Add the melted white chocolate, condensed milk, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix well until everything is evenly combined and forms a dough-like consistency.
Take about a tablespoon-sized portion of the mixture in your hands, flatten it slightly, and place a whole toasted hazelnut in the center. Roll the mixture into a smooth ball, ensuring the hazelnut is completely covered.
Repeat with the remaining mixture until you have approximately 25 balls.
Optional: Roll each ball in additional desiccated coconut for a decorative finish.
Transfer the balls to a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up before serving.
Store the White Chocolate and Hazelnut Balls in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
