1 level tablespoon of margarine
50g finely grated Parmesan cheese
1 level tablespoon of margarine
50g finely grated Parmesan cheese
Where to find ingredients
You can find these staples at major South African supermarkets. Look for full-cream condensed milk in the baking aisle, and high-quality Parmesan in the deli or cheese section. If you prefer a slightly firmer texture, extra-matured Parmesan works well as a substitute.
Preparation method
- Combine the condensed milk, margarine, and finely grated Parmesan in a heavy-based saucepan.
- Place over medium heat and stir constantly with a silicone spatula to ensure even cooking.
- Continue stirring until the mixture thickens and begins to pull away completely from the bottom of the pan.
- Pour the mixture onto a plate that has been lightly greased with a thin layer of margarine.
- Exercise some patience and allow the mixture to cool completely to room temperature.
- Form small, bite-sized balls with your hands, keeping them lightly greased to prevent sticking.
- Finish by coating each piece in either caster sugar or desiccated coconut, according to your preference.
- Place each piece into delicate paper mini-cases to serve.
