Delicious no-bake Ferrero Rocher style sweets made with 4 ingredients

Recipe Summary

  • Prep Time: 15 minutes
  • Cook Time: 0 minutes
  • Total Time: 35 minutes (including chilling)
  • Servings: 26 sweets
  • Cuisine: International
  • Course: Dessert
  • Calories: 150 per serving

Ingredients

  • 280 g (10 oz) biscuits (homemade or store-bought, preferably gluten-free or oatmeal-based)
  • 200 g (7 oz) hazelnut spread (such as chocolate hazelnut spread or hazelnut butter mixed with white chocolate)
  • 200 g (7 oz) milk chocolate (or dark/white chocolate as preferred)
  • 40 g (1.5 oz) finely chopped hazelnuts

Instructions

  1. Break the biscuits into uneven pieces and crush them gently with a rolling pin, preserving a variety of sizes to enhance texture.
  2. Transfer the biscuit crumbs to a bowl and mix in the hazelnut spread until all pieces are evenly coated.
  3. If the mixture feels too soft or sticky, chill it in the refrigerator for 10 minutes or briefly in the freezer to firm up.
  4. Scoop generous spoonfuls of the mixture and shape them into balls, making about 26 sweets.
  5. Melt the milk chocolate using a double boiler or microwave until completely smooth.
  6. Stir the finely chopped hazelnuts into the melted chocolate.
  7. Dip each biscuit ball into the chocolate-hazelnut mixture, using tweezers or a fork to lift it out, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
  8. Place the coated balls on parchment paper and refrigerate for approximately 20 minutes, until the chocolate coating is set.
  9. Store the sweets in the refrigerator and enjoy them chilled as delightful mini desserts or gift treats.

Recipe Notes

  • Crushing biscuits unevenly gives a pleasant bite rather than a uniform texture.
  • Slightly chilling the mixture before shaping makes rolling easier and cleaner.
  • Work quickly when dipping to avoid chocolate hardening prematurely.
  • Use parchment paper to prevent sweets from sticking during refrigeration.
