This easy 3-ingredient Chocolate Peda (Chocolate Almond Bites) is an Indian fudge made with condensed milk, almond flour and cocoa powder. You need less than 20-minutes to make this healthy treat for your kids!You could call these Chocolate Almond Energy Bites, Cocoa Almond Fudge or Chocolate Almond Peda (in India). The difference is the shape. I made balls and flattened them a bit, so they look like small coins.
Ingredients½ can Sweetened Condensed Milk (7 oz)
1.5 cup Almond Flour
1.5 tablespoon Cocoa Powder
½ tablespoon Ghee or Oil
1 tablespoon Sliced Almonds cut into smaller pieces
Method
- Heat a pan on medium flame and add ghee to it. Add the condensed milk and let it heat for 2 minutes.
- Add almond flour and mix with the condensed milk.
- Add cocoa powder and mix well. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes while stirring continuously. The mixture should be thick such that you can roll in your hands.
- Take the pan off the flame and let the mixture cool for 3-4 minutes. We want the mixture to be warm at a temperature you can take in your hand.
- Grease your hands with ghee or oil. Take a small amount of mixture in your hands and roll it like a ball using both hands.
- Press the ball to make the flattened coin shape. Press 2-3 sliced almond on top to garnish.
- Keep them at room temperature for about an hour and enjoy!
