I found this sweet
recipe by Fazer when I was researching and getting inspiration for
the Marianne crush I purchased in Finland. Marianne are
traditional Finnish chocolate filled mint sweets made by Fazer, who
launched the crush range a few years back. Now after having made
these chocolate balls, I can't wait to get to Finland soon to buy
more of these crush products.
Please note that
the original recipe is only available in Finnish through the link, but I have followed
it pretty closely.
100 g butter
1 dl sugar
2 tsp vanilla
sugar
4 tbsp cocoa
powder
3 dl oat and
barley flake mix (original recipe is only with oat flakes)
2 tbsp strong cold
coffee
For decorating:
Marianne crush (or
any mint sweets and milk chocolate crushed)
Instructions:
Instructions:
Make some strong
coffee. Enjoy the most yourself while making these balls and set two
tablespoons of the coffee to side to be chilled.
Mix the butter,
sugar and vanilla sugar in a bowl.
Add the cocoa
powder, coffee and oat flakes.
Mix until you have
a smooth and firm paste.
Shape small balls
of the mixture and finally roll them in the crush, so that it sticks
all around them.
Let the balls rest
for couple of hours in the fridge before serving.
Then just enjoy!
