Easy Toddler Cooking ~ Truffles

I'm usually not keen to cook with the kids, to be truthful, I'm usually not all that keen to cook at all!  The Toddler Timers however are. So here is my compromise, no bake cooking to make truffles. We made kid friendly ones and covered them with hundreds and thousands rather than the usual coconut. 



Ingredients:

1 Packet of Marie Biscuits
1 Can of Condensed Milk
1 Cup of Desiccated Coconut
2 Tablespoons of Cocoa
100's and 1000's to cover truffles

Before we were ready to start I pulsed the Marie Biscuits in the food processor until they were fairly fine.  We then added the coconut.

Next went in the Cocoa and finally the Condensed Milk.

Then it was time to stir, stir.

Stir!

And of course have a taste test.

We then rolled the chocolate mixture into small balls and then rolled them in Hundreds and Thousands.

This bit was a little bit messy and a tiny bit sticky! (Warning, we had Hundreds and Thousands EVERYWHERE!!! Nothing a vacuum couldn't fix though!)

The best bit about cooking is helping to 'Clean Up!'

Our finished Christmas Fairy Truffles all ready to share at Mother's Group tomorrow!
