This recipe was handed down by my late Aunt Lily (bet she'd have loved the internet had she lived long enough. She was a very intelligent lady who was born before the 20th century opened and even went to University to graduate MA, before it was normal for women to graduate.
12 Digestive biscuits (crushed)
4 oz butter
3 Tbsps coconut
2 Tbsps drinking chocolate
1 small tin Nestle’s milk
2 Tbsps sherry (rum is better, or Tia Maria) Chocolate vermicelli
Melt milk and butter DO NOT BOIL
Add other ingredients, then sherry, rum or Tia Maria
Leave overnight to harden. Roll into balls and coat with chocolate vermicelli.
I made this recipe in October 2008 and added half a cherry in the middle of each ball. I think that a whole cherry could be even better.
