Ingredients

For 12 portions

Put the condensed milk, sifted cocoa, butter and salt in a non-stick pan over a medium-low heat.
Stir constantly with a spatula for 10–12 minutes. It is ready when it is thick and glossy and, when you tilt the pan, the mixture slides away from the base in one piece.
Scrape onto a buttered plate, cover and leave to cool, then chill for 30 minutes until firm enough to handle.
With lightly buttered hands, roll teaspoons of the mixture into small balls, about 2.5 cm across.
Roll each ball in the chocolate sprinkles and put it in a small paper case. Keep in the fridge, but serve at room temperature.
