Inspired by a TikTok request for a Milo Mochi, these Milo Mischief Balls came to life as a delightful alternative for those of us who prefer a different texture. As someone who isn't a big fan of mochi's chewiness, I wanted to create something uniquely satisfying, using familiar ingredients in an unexpectedly delightful way.
The recipe combines crushed Marie Biscuits with the iconic malt flavor of Australian Milo and sweet condensed milk, all rolled into balls and coated with toasted, lightly salted coconut. It's an easy-to-make snack that promises a comforting, melt-in-your-mouth experience, with just the right touch of crunch from the coconut. It kind of reminds me of the Swedish snack: Chokladbollar.
So why not give these Milo Mischief Balls a try? They’re a perfect project for an afternoon in the kitchen and even better for sharing with friends or enjoying with a cup of coffee.
The process is straightforward—mix, roll, chill—and the result is absolutely delicious. These balls are a testament to the magic that happens when you play around with simple ingredients. Whether you're looking for a sweet treat to end your day or a fun edible gift, these little wonders are sure to bring some mischief and joy to your table. Dive in, and let's make snacking exciting again!
