    I used home made condensed milk and raw cacao powder. These got the thumbs up from everyone in the family! I didn't have chocolate sprinkles so I used desiccated coconut, crushed pistachios and buckwheat groats. Yum yum.

    I made these for a Brazilian house guest and we made them together. I substituted 70% cacao cooking chocolate - 100gms. It was super easy, delicious and went down a treat at the Brazilian gathering we hosted for 14 exchange students. Thanks

    Delicious! I've seen these for sale in gourmet food shops recently and knew they would be easy to make - the crunchy sprinkles on the outside contrast with the gooey caramel. Not too sweet either. Am wondering if you could add some dark chocolate or coffee to the mix to change the flavours as well.

    These were yum. Not sickly sweet as I half feared when I saw the ingredients. The cocoa gives a hint of bitterness that offsets the condensed milk. Simple to make with just a bit of time needed for rolling. I used one batch of homemade condensed milk.

    Delicious. I used carob powder instead of cocoa and kept them in the fridge. Great for an after dinner treat.

  • Sorry, did not rate these

    Submitted by ClaireMorrissey2008 on 24. August 2016 - 15:04.

    Sorry, did not rate these well at all. They just taste... Well... Not quite right. I followed the recipe exactly. Also it's a lot of varoma / heating time for very little product at the end.

     

    back the tbe drawing board for me!

  • Saw these on the facebook

    Submitted by Mixie Von Cook on 18. August 2016 - 16:09.

    Saw these on the facebook page this morning, had the ingredients in the pantry so decided to give them a go. They turned out great! Such a quick and easy treat to whip up for a special occassion. Next time I will make my own condensed milk so they are even cheaper too but they are really budget friendly!
