Step-by-step recipe for powdered milk and cocoa sweets

The taste of fragrant balls with milk filling has been familiar to me since childhood. The elder sister always loved to cook and constantly delighted us with new culinary creations, which included these sweets. So far, I haven't gotten to her recipe to make a treat with my own hands, but I'm happy to share some useful information with you.

Ingredients:

• 250 g milk powder;
• 300 g granulated sugar;
• 100 g butter;
• 3-4 st. l. cocoa powder;
• 70 ml of water;
• 30 ml dark rum;
• cardamom to taste.

Preparation:

1. Stock up on the foods you need.

   

   Prepare the required ingredients

2. In a saucepan, mix water and sugar, add rum.

   

   Mix liquid ingredients with granulated sugar

3. Bring the mixture to a boil. When the sugar crystals have completely melted, reduce the heat and, without ceasing to stir, cook the syrup for 10 minutes until it thickens slightly.

   

   In the process of cooking syrup, do not forget to stir it constantly

4. Pour the syrup into a large bowl. This will allow the mixture to cool down faster, which will shorten the preparation time.

   

   Transfer the syrup to a suitable wide-bottomed bowl

5. Add chopped butter to the hot syrup.

   

   To dissolve the oil faster, cut it into pieces first.

6. Stir the oil to dissolve.

7. Grind a few grains of cardamom in a mortar.

   

   Chop the cardamom well

8. Pour the cardamom and milk powder into the butter / sugar mixture.

   

   Add powdered milk and cardamom to the sugar and butter mixture

9. Stir all ingredients thoroughly to avoid lumps.

   

   Stir the resulting mass until smooth

10. Cover the container with a lid and refrigerate for half an hour.
11. Pour the cocoa powder into a bowl.
12. Remove the milk and sugar mass from the refrigerator and shape the candies into balls.

13. Dip the candies in cocoa so that they are completely covered with a layer of powder.

    

    Roll balls in cocoa

14. Serve sweets for tea or arrange them in beautiful boxes and present to loved ones.
