• Cocoa powder 4 tbsp. l (3 for mixture + 1 for deboning)

3. Add vanilla sugar and cocoa to the finished mixture of butter and condensed milk, and also knead until the resulting mass is homogeneous, if there are better clumps left, you can add crushed cookies, then mix everything in the same way, it should turn out to be a non-viscous and rather thick mixture. Finely chopped nuts or dried fruits can be added here, or for decoration, this is a matter of taste.
