Instructions

In a medium saucepan, combine condensed milk, coffee, butter and corn syrup over medium high heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Once the mixture begins to boil, turn the heat down to medium low and continue to stir for 15 to 25 minutes or until the mixture thickens to a fudge-like consistency.

Pour the mixture into a bowl without scraping the sides of the pan. Discard what remains in the pan. Allow the mixture to cook in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 hours.

Using a teaspoon, scoop the mixture and roll into balls. Dip into cocoa powder to coat and press a coffee bean on top.
