Homemade Ferrero Rocher Copycat: No-Bake Peanut Chocolate Balls That Keep for a Week in the Fridge
No-bake chocolate cookie balls dipped in chocolate with chopped peanuts, in the style of Ferrero Rocher.
Instructions
Grind the cookies to a fine powder in a food processor.
Add the cocoa powder to the ground cookies and mix the dry mixture thoroughly.
Gradually pour in the whole milk and work it with your hands or a wooden spoon into a uniform dough.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for 30 minutes so it is easier to work with.
Take small pieces of the chilled dough and roll balls about 1 1/4 inches (3 cm) across in your palms.
Chop the peanuts with a knife into small pieces, not to dust, so they stay crunchy in the coating.
Melt the chocolate in a double boiler, then stir in the chopped peanuts.
Using a fork, dip each ball into the chocolate mixture and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Let the candies set in the refrigerator until the coating is firm to the touch.
- Use chocolate with at least 52% cocoa for a deeper flavor.
- Contains peanuts. Keeps up to 7 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
