Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

250 g Gingernut biscuits
400 ml Condensed milk
135 g Rolled oats (or quick oats)
10 g Cinnamon
5 g Ground ginger
3 g Ground cloves
3 g Allspice
40 g Desiccated coconut

Optional Decoration

45 g White chocolate
Christmas sprinkles (optional)

Instructions

Prepare biscuits: Place 250 g of gingernut biscuits into a blender, food processor, or hand blender and process until they become a fine powder. Alternatively, put the biscuits in a large ziplock bag and crush them finely using a rolling pin.
Combine ingredients: Add 400 ml condensed milk, 10 g cinnamon, 5 g ground ginger, 3 g ground cloves, 3 g allspice, and 40 g desiccated coconut to the crushed biscuits in the processor. Blend until everything is combined. Gradually add 135 g rolled oats while mixing until the mixture reaches a consistency where you can easily form a ball by hand without it becoming too sticky or dropping.
Form truffle balls: Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, portion approximately 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. If the mixture is too soft and the balls do not hold their shape, chill the mixture in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to firm up before continuing to shape the rest of the balls.
Optional chocolate decoration: Place 45 g white chocolate in a microwave-safe dish and microwave in 10-second intervals, stirring in between until half melted. Stir without further heating to avoid clumping.
Dip and decorate: Using a fork or chopstick, dip each truffle ball into the melted white chocolate and move it back and forth to coat it to your liking. Add Christmas sprinkles if desired for a festive finish.

Notes

Note 1: Gingernut biscuits provide the classic gingerbread flavor and a crunchy base; they can be substituted with similar spiced cookies if unavailable.
Note 2: Use sweetened condensed milk for sweetness and binding; do not substitute with evaporated milk.
Note 3: The blend of cinnamon, ground ginger, cloves, and allspice gives the traditional gingerbread spice flavor.
Note 4: White chocolate decoration is optional but adds visual appeal and sweetness contrast.
