Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 can sweetened condensed milk, 3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1/4 tsp salt. Stir over medium heat until the mixture begins to bubble, then reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring constantly, for 10-12 minutes until thickened and pulling away from the sides of the pan.
  2. Step 2: Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes. Using a small spoon or melon baller, form the mixture into 1-inch balls.
  3. Step 3: Roll each ball in 1/4 cup powdered sugar until fully coated. Place on a parchment-lined plate and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
