How to Make 3-Ingredient Mango Delight Truffles

Prepare the oven: No oven is needed for this recipe. Clear a space in the fridge and line a tray with baking parchment so the truffles are ready to chill once shaped.
Mix the ingredients: Tip the crushed mango biscuits into a large bowl. Add the condensed milk and desiccated coconut, then mix well until you have a thick, sticky mixture that holds together easily.
Shape the truffles: Using lightly greased hands, roll the mixture into small, even balls about the size of a walnut.
Coat the truffles: Roll each ball in extra desiccated coconut until evenly coated, then place onto the prepared tray.
Chill and set: Refrigerate the truffles for at least 30 minutes until firm. Once set, they are ready to serve.

Tips

Why is my mixture too soft to roll?

If the mixture feels too sticky, add a little more desiccated coconut and mix again. Chilling the bowl for 10 minutes can also make shaping easier.

Can I make the truffles more mango-flavoured?

You can add a few drops of mango essence to intensify the flavour, but keep it minimal so the texture stays firm.

How do I get evenly sized truffles?

Use a teaspoon or small cookie scoop to portion the mixture before rolling. This helps them look neat and uniform.

FAQs

Can I make these truffles without coconut?

Yes, you can roll them in crushed biscuits or icing sugar instead, though the flavour and texture will change slightly.

Do these mango truffles need baking?

No, this is a no-bake recipe. The truffles set in the fridge rather than the oven.

Can I use fresh mango instead of biscuits?

Fresh mango adds too much moisture. Mango-flavoured biscuits give the right texture and concentrated flavour.

Are these truffles suitable for children?

Yes, they are sweet, mild, and easy to eat, making them suitable for all ages.
