Ingredients
Truffle Mixture
- 1 cup ripe mango puree
- 1 cup crushed biscuits or graham crackers
- ½ cup condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Coating
- ½ cup desiccated coconut
- Extra coconut for coating
- Chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare mango puree: Blend fresh ripe mangoes until smooth, ensuring no chunks remain to achieve a creamy texture suitable for the truffle base.
- Crush biscuits: Using a blender or rolling pin, crush the biscuits or graham crackers into fine crumbs which will form the base of the truffles.
- Mix wet ingredients: In a bowl, combine the mango puree, condensed milk, and melted butter. Stir thoroughly until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
- Add dry ingredients: Incorporate the crushed biscuit crumbs and vanilla extract into the wet mixture, combining until a thick dough forms.
- Check consistency: Ensure the mixture is soft but not sticky; if too wet, add more biscuit crumbs incrementally to achieve the right texture.
- Chill mixture: Refrigerate the dough for 20 minutes to firm it up, which will make shaping the truffles easier.
- Shape truffles: Take small portions of the chilled mixture and roll them evenly into small balls for uniformity in size and presentation.
- Coat truffles: Roll each truffle ball in desiccated coconut or optional chopped nuts, coating evenly for added texture and flavor.
- Set again: Place the coated truffles on a tray and chill them in the refrigerator for another 20 minutes to firm up properly.
- Serve chilled: Serve the mango truffles cold for the best taste experience, enjoying the soft and refreshing mango flavor in every bite.
Notes
- You can substitute graham crackers with digestive biscuits if preferred.
- For a nuttier flavor, add finely chopped nuts inside the truffle mixture before shaping.
- Keep the truffles refrigerated until service to maintain their shape and freshness.
- To make vegan, use coconut condensed milk and vegan biscuits, and substitute butter with coconut oil.
- These truffles can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
