Ingredients

  • 100 g of oat flakes
  • 150 g of mixed cereals (e.g. puffed rice or corn flakes)
  • 100 g of chopped dried fruit (e.g. walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts)
  • 100 g of crumbled dry biscuits

Preparation of crunchy cereal and dried fruit balls

To make this delicious treat, start by combining the rolled oats, mixed cereals, chopped nuts, and crushed biscuits in a large bowl. Add the dark chocolate chips and chopped walnuts.

Heat the milk chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave until completely melted and smooth. Pour it into the bowl of dry ingredients, stirring well until smooth. Refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes, or until firm enough to work with your hands.

Then, take small portions of dough at a time and shape them into walnut-sized balls. Place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least an hour, or until completely firm. Once the balls are completely chilled, they'll be ready to enjoy. Enjoy!
