Cocoa Dusted Dark Chocolate Truffles

1. 1

   In a sauce pan, on medium high heat, combine the sweetened condensed milk and the butter.

2. 2

   Next, add in half the cocoa powder, confectioner's sugar, salt, and vanilla. Mix well.

3. 3

   The mixture will be runny at first, but will stiffen up after about 20 minutes. Stir frequently to avoid burning. If mixture begins to bubble, reduce to medium heat.

4. 4

   Once the mixture is stiff enough to press a spoon into the bottom of the pan and separate the chocolate without it immediately running back together, take it off the heat.

5. 5

   Chill in the refrigerator for 10 to 20 minutes, until completely cool.

6. 6

   Coat your hands with cooking spray and then roll the chocolate into bite-sized balls.

7. 7

   Then, roll each in the remaining cocoa powder until well-coated. Serve immediately or chill a few minutes longer before serving. These last in the fridge for about one week. Makes about 1 dozen, depending on the size of the balls.
