Scale

KitKat Truffles Ingredients

  • 340 g KitKats, crushed
  • 153 g Sweetened Condensed Milk (1/2 Cup)
  • 315 g Milk or Dark Chocolate (1 and 3/4 Cups), melted

Instructions

  1. Crush the KitKats: Begin by crushing all the KitKat bars into small pieces and place them into a large mixing bowl for easier incorporation with the condensed milk.
  2. Mix with condensed milk: Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the crushed KitKats. Mix thoroughly with a spoon or spatula until the mixture becomes gooey and well combined.
  3. Form the truffle balls: Using your hands or a small scoop, roll the mixture into uniform balls. Place each ball on a non-stick baking sheet lined on a baking tray for stability.
  4. Freeze the truffles: Place the baking tray in the freezer for about 30 minutes to allow the truffle balls to firm up, making them easier to dip in chocolate later.
  5. Melt the chocolate: Separately melt the milk or dark chocolate gently, either using a double boiler or microwave, stirring frequently to ensure smoothness.
  6. Dip in chocolate: Once the truffles are firm, dip each ball into the melted chocolate to coat completely. Return the dipped truffles to the non-stick sheet.
  7. Set and store: Place the coated truffles in the refrigerator until the chocolate has set and hardened. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Notes

  • Use full-fat sweetened condensed milk for a rich and smooth texture.
  • KitKats can be crushed in a food processor or by hand using a rolling pin inside a sealed bag.
  • Ensure the chocolate is fully melted but not overheated to avoid spoiling the coating texture.
  • For a festive touch, sprinkle crushed nuts or colored sprinkles on the chocolate before it sets.
  • Store truffles in a cool place to prevent melting, especially in warmer climates.
