fair trade recipes

Here's a quick and easy fair trade recipe to make with your group!
 
Scrummy fairtrade truffles 

 

 

 

 

You need:

- One 150g packet of fairly traded milk chocolate

- One and a half tablespoons of condensed milk

- Half a teaspoon of vanilla essence

- 100g butter

- 75g caster sugar

- Spare caster sugar to coat the truffles at the end.   

 

 

 

  What to do:

  • Get an adult to help.
  • Melt the chocolate and butter together and mix in the vanilla essence.
  • Then add and stir in the condensed milk and sugar, then put it in an airtight container and leave it in the fridge till it’s firm. Don’t worry if the mixture separates slightly – just roll it altogether when you make the truffles later.
  • Later, take a teaspoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Then roll the ball in the spare caster sugar.*
  • Store your truffles in the fridge.  

*As an alternative, you could roll the truffles in desiccated coconut or chocolate hundreds & thousands.
