What You'll Need 1 can (300 mL) Regular Eagle Brand® sweetened condensed milk 16 squares (1 oz/28g each) semi-sweet chocolate 1 tbsp (15 mL) pure orange extract, or to taste ½ tsp (2.5 mL) finely grated orange zest (optional) Optional Coatings: finely chopped roasted hazelnuts/filberts or other nuts, unsweetened cocoa powder, green decorating sugar, icing sugar or ½ cup/125 mL unsweetened cocoa powder mixed with 2 tbsp/30 mL icing sugar. What's Next 1. Combine sweetened condensed milk and chocolate in heavy bottom saucepan over low heat, stirring continuously until chocolate is melted. 2. Remove from heat and stir in orange extract (and zest, if using). Chill until firm enough to handle, about 2-3 hours. 3. Shape into 1-inch (2.5 cm) balls (a melon baller is helpful). Roll in any of the coatings, and place on parchment lined cookie sheet. Chill again until firm. (I have made these! They are sooooooo good!)
