Preparation time: 20 minutes Chilling time: 1-2 hours Number of servings: 20-25 candies Necessary ingredients: - 300 g milk powder - 120 g powdered sugar - 170 g coconut (plus extra for decoration) - 120 g butter (at room temperature) - 12 g vanilla sugar (half a packet) - 1 heaping tablespoon of cream Necessary utensils: - A deep plate for mixing - A bowl for softening the butter - A spatula or spoon for mixing - A tray or plate for placing the candies - A plastic bag or container for storing the candies Step by step: 1. Softening the butter: Start by placing the butter on a plate and letting it soften at room temperature for a few hours, or if you're in a hurry, you can place it in the microwave for 10-15 seconds. Make sure it doesn't melt completely, just becomes a little soft. 2. Mixing the ingredients: Once the butter is soft, add the cream. Use a spatula or spoon to mix the ingredients well until you obtain a smooth paste. Now it's time to add the vanilla sugar and powdered sugar. Mix again to ensure the sugar is perfectly integrated. 3. Adding the dry ingredients: Now, incorporate the milk powder and 100 g of coconut into the mixture. Mix well until everything becomes a fairly thick composition. If you have a softer texture, don't worry, you can adjust by adding a little more milk powder. 4. Forming the candies: With wet hands, take a piece of the mixture and form a ball about 2-3 cm in diameter. Then, roll the ball in the remaining coconut, making sure it is evenly coated. Place the candies on a plate. 5. Chilling: If your Raffaello candies are a little soft, don't worry! Place them in the fridge for 1-2 hours. This will allow them to firm up and achieve the perfect texture. 6. Decorating: For a more attractive look, you can sprinkle chocolate decorations from Dr. Oetker or add roasted almonds inside the candies for a surprising taste. The story behind the recipe: These Raffaello candies are inspired by the famous coconut pralines, which remind us of the sweet moments of childhood. By cooking this recipe at home, you not only enjoy a delicious dessert but also have the opportunity to experiment and put your personal touch on the recipe. Nutritional benefits: Homemade Raffaello candies are a good source of energy due to the coconut content, which is rich in fiber and healthy fats. Milk powder provides protein, while the butter contributes to a creamy taste and satiety. Frequently asked questions: - Can I use other types of nuts? Of course! You can add almonds or pistachios instead of coconut to diversify the flavor. - How can I store the Raffaello candies? They are best stored in an airtight container in the fridge to maintain their texture and flavor. - Can I make the recipe without sugar? You can use natural sweeteners or sugar alternatives, but the taste and texture may vary. Serving suggestions: These Raffaello candies are excellent served alongside a cup of coffee or tea. Additionally, if you want to impress, you can offer them as part of a dessert platter, alongside other chocolate delicacies or cakes.
