Chocolate Fudge Balls

The original intention was to duplicate the chocolate burfis that my friend Latha made since she mentioned what a hit they were, but in my eagerness I may have pulled them off the stove a little bit sooner than I should have so their consistency was more fudge-like and chewy and soon I was rolling them up into tiny balls and renaming them :)

CHOCOLATE FUDGE BALLS


Ingredients:
Condensed Milk (e.g. Milkmaid) - 1 can (400g)
Cocoa powder - 1/2 cup
Sugar - 1/4 cup (more if you want it sweeter, we liked it this way)
Butter - 4 tbsp / 50 g/ Half stick
CashewNuts & Raisins - half cup (optional - i didn't use this)

Method:

1) In a heavy bottomed pan, heat the condensed milk, cocoa powder, sugar, butter, nuts & raisins too, if using, on medium.

2) Keep stirring and cooking until the mixture leaves the sides of the pan.

3) Pour the mixture onto a buttered pan, smoothen out and allow to cool completely. It can be cut into squares or rolled into balls depending on the consistency. Tastes good either way.
