Mars Bar Balls
- Total Time: 10
- Yield: 20 1x
Description
A massive hit that went viral in just a few hours. Perfect for gift giving.
Ingredients
Scale
- 250g shortbread biscuits, broken up
- 20g cocoa powder
- 200–220g sweetened condensed milk
- 5 fun size mars bars, cut into four pieces each
- Sprinkles
Instructions
- Place biscuits into tmx bowl. Blitz on speed 7 until desired consistency. These can be as fine or coarse as you like.
- Add cocoa and blitz on speed 5 for 6 seconds.
- Add condensed milk and blitz on speed 4 until a dough forms.
- I was able to roll straight away but if you find the shapes collapse slightly, refrigerate it for 30 mins or so. If its too dry add a little more sweetened condensed milk.
- Get a small piece of “dough”, flatten slightly and place a cube of mars bar in the middle and mould the dough around it. Roll into a smooth ball shape and roll into sprinkles.
- I keep mine in the fridge.
- Prep Time: 10
You can also put a marshmallow in the middle & roll them in coconit.
I have made these a few times now and WOW!! I sent them with my husband to work and his workmates couldn’t work out how the caramel got on the inside. There weren’t any left overs.
This is really nice!!! Made it this afternoon and I don’t think there will be any left by the time I go to bed 🙂
