½ cup sweetened condensed milk
¼ cup cocoa powder plus more for coating
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
⅛ teaspoon salt

Scoop up a tablespoon (use a tablespoon measure), then use a teaspoon to scoop the mixture out into your hands Scoop out small balls and roll between the palm of hands to make an even ball.

Notes:

Semi sweet chocolate chips – The better the quality, the better the truffle. Use high quality chocolate like Ghiradelli semi sweet chocolate chips or finely chopped chocolate bar.
Roll truffles in cocoa powder, immediately after rolling – The surface of the truffle will still be slightly sticky and melted from the heat of your hands, so the toppings will adhere well.
Rolled truffles are too dry for toppings – Roll the truffle between your hands (pressing them gently). The heat from your hands will make them sticky again for toppings.
Optional toppings – Apart from cocoa powder, these easy chocolate truffles recipe with condensed milk can be rolled in finely chopped pistachios, almonds, peanuts or shredded coconut (use unsweetened).
