Ingredients

Start here, then move straight into the method.

  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (about 40 g)
  • Almonds with skins, roughly chopped
  • 30 g butter
  • Coatings, as desired
  • For more of Rana’s wonderful recipes, see Cinnamon Roll Cake

Method

Follow the cooking sequence without leaving the page.

  1. Mix the condensed milk with the cocoa while cold until well combined.
  2. Add the butter and place over the heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens.
  3. Turn off the heat, add the crushed almonds, and mix.
  4. Pour the mixture into a dish and cover it.
  5. After it cools to room temperature, put it in the fridge to chill well for at least four hours or longer as needed.
  6. After that time, shape the pudding into rounds or truffles.
  7. Coat or dip them as desired—for example, in desiccated coconut, vermicelli sprinkles, grated chocolate, or crushed pistachios... You can also leave the almond pudding truffles uncoated, according to your preference.
  8. Arrange them on a plate and keep them in the fridge until serving.
