7 oz. sweetened condensed milk (half of a can)
1/4 cup so�ened bu�er

More walnuts for topping (op�onal)
INSTRUCTIONS
- With a mixer, beat together the sweetened condensed milk, bu�er, extracts, syrup, and salt. Add
the powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a �me un�l the mixture is doughy. You may need a li�le more or less
that 3 1/2 cups. Roll the dough into small balls and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment
paper. Refrigerate or freeze un�l they're all solid.

fork �nes. Place the coated ball back onto the sheet and top with a piece of walnut.
