Prompt

I was home alone with the little one and decided to make something easy and delicious with him, a childhood memory. I asked ChatGPT if it knows it:

You know what כדורי שוקולד are? With פתי בר? Israeli recipe?

It said yes:

Yes, I know exactly what you mean! כדורי שוקולד (kadurei shokolad) are classic Israeli chocolate balls, often made with פתי בר (Petite Beurre) biscuits. They’re a nostalgic no-bake treat, popular at kids’ birthday parties and super easy to make.

Traditional Ingredients:

• פתי בר (Petite Beurre biscuits), crushed

• Cocoa powder

• Sugar

• Butter

• Milk

• Sometimes coconut flakes or sprinkles for rolling

Want a traditional recipe or a twist on it (e.g., less sugar, dairy-free, etc.)?

I did want it to create a recipe for me:

Yes, traditional, delicious recipe. No fuss, same like my childhood recipe

It created a recipe for me:

Perfect. Here's a traditional, no-fuss כדורי שוקולד recipe—just like childhood in every bite:

כדורי שוקולד – Classic Israeli Chocolate Balls

Ingredients:

• 1 pack פתי בר (Petite Beurre) biscuits (about 250g)

• 100g butter, softened

• ½ cup sugar (100g)

• ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder (25g)

• ½ cup milk (120ml)

• Desiccated coconut or sprinkles, for coating

Instructions:

1. Crush the biscuits by hand or in a food processor until you have small chunks (not powdery).

2. In a large bowl, mix the sugar and cocoa powder. Add the softened butter and milk, and mix until smooth.

3. Add the crushed biscuits and mix until fully combined. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes so the biscuits soak a bit.

4. Shape into small balls using your hands.

5. Roll each ball in coconut or sprinkles.

6. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, until firm.

Tips:

• Keeps well in the fridge for 5–7 days.

• Freezes beautifully – just thaw a few minutes before serving.

• You can swap some of the milk with chocolate liqueur or espresso for a grown-up version.

Want a printable version or Schema markup for this?

I needed it to adjust the quantities a bit:

I have 365 (approx 3 packages) of petit beurre

So it did.
