CHOCOLATE-YEMA TRUFFLES

Ingredients
  

  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1 can condensed milk
  • 1 bag semi-sweet chocolate chips(divided)
  • 3 tbsp butter

Instructions
 

  • Melt butter in a pot. Add the condense milk. Stir and cook for about 3 minutes.
  • Add the egg yolks and continue to stir. Lower your heat and keep stirring until the whole thing thickens. About 15-20 minutes.
  • Transfer the yema into a bowl to cool completely. Stick the bowl in the fridge if you want to.
  • Chop about a handful of the chocolate chips. Once the yema is cooled, add the chopped chocolate chips. Mix the two together until well incorporated. Using a spoon, scoop up some of the yema and chocolate mixture, roll using the hands to create a mini-ball. Repeat with the rest of the yema-chocolate mixture. This recipe makes 20 balls.
  • FYI: It could get oily while rolling so just wash and dry your hands as you go along.
  • Store the yema balls in the fridge to set and firm up for an hour or 2.Melt the remaining half of the chocolate chips in a bowl using the microwave. About 1 minute and 30 seconds. Stir the melted chocolate until smooth. Roll the yema balls into the melted chocolate using a spoon. Repeat with the rest of chocolate chips to coat more yema balls. Set the coated yema balls into a platter to set for 5 to 10 minutes.
