Time 20m

Yield 40 candies, 40 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 tablespoon butter
3 tablespoons cocoa
chocolate sprinkles

Steps:

  • Over medium-low heat, stir vigorously the three ingredients.
  • Cook the mixture until it thickens enough to show the pan bottom during stirring (it will be firm enough to stay together and not spread) Pour into a greased dish and let cool to room temperature (or chill a few minutes in the fridge) Grease your hands with butter and take small amounts of candy and form into 1 1/2 inch balls.
  • Roll the balls in chocolate jimmies to decorate.
  • If the balls don't hold their shape, cook an additional 5 minutes until it thickens up more.
