Food waste zero! If you didn't succeed the melomakarona recipe or you have leftover of them, make these amazing truffles!
Put the melomakarona in a food processor and crush them well.
Coarsely chop the walnuts. I want the walnuts coarsely chopped and able to see in the truffles, so I crushed them by hand. But if you want, you can grind them until they become powder.
Melt the butter, add the sifted cocoa powder and mix it well. Then add the sweetened condensed milk (*see tip for replacement), brandy and vanilla, continuing to mix them.
Continue by adding the crushed melomakarona and finally add the walnuts.
Cover the mixture with cling film and leave it in the fridge for 1-2 hours to firm up.
When the mixture is firmed, take it out of the fridge and roll it by hand to small balls. It makes about 30 large truffles.
Pour the sprinkles into a bowl or deep plate and roll into, each ball truffle so that it sticks everywhere and put it at a truffle cups.
