Need another Caramilk recipe in your life? These easy Caramilk Balls are for you!
It’s safe to say I’ve well and truly jumped onto the Caramilk bandwagon, especially after the delicious success of my Caramilk Brownies recipe. These easy Caramilk Balls only require 4 simple ingredients, take no time at all to put together and are a delicious treat that all Caramilk lovers will enjoy!
These easy no bake balls make a great treat for your next party, an easy dessert and with Christmas just around the corner (eek!) they are also a great homemade gift idea for friends or teachers.
To make these balls, all you will need is sweetened condensed milk, coconut, biscuits and Caramilk – of course! Then, all you need to do is melt the chocolate and then add the biscuits (which have been blitzed and the coconut and give it a good stir to combine. The mixture WILL be sticky, but that is completely normal! You then roll the mixture into balls and coat them in some more coconut before popping into the fridge to chill – have I convinced you yet just how easy these are to make?
Tips for Making Caramilk Balls
- You can use any type of plain biscuit for this recipe, I used Arnotts Marie Biscuits.
- The time it takes to melt the chocolate will vary – it depends on the temperature of your chocolate.
- The mixture WILL be sticky when mixing together – this is normal.
- If you are using a Thermomix to make this recipe, I suggest making sure you scrape the bottom of the bowl with your spatula to ensure you have lifted all of the ingredients off the bottom and nothing is ‘stuck’.
- When rolling your balls, if you find they are not holding a circular shape very well, pop the mixture into the fridge for half an hour to chill before attempting to roll into balls.
- This recipe is best stored in the fridge in an airtight container for up to one week.

I found I needed 1/2 a tin more of condensed milk because it was a bit dry
