- Roughly crumble the mini rolls into a bowl and combine with cream. Roll tablespoons of the mixture into balls and set aside in the fridge on a lined tray then place in the fridge until firm.
- Once firm, melt the chocolate in small bursts in a microwave, stirring between each burst. Place the coconut in a bowl, then dip the balls into the chocolate with a fork, coating the outside, and roll in the coconut. Set aside in the fridge again for 30 minutes.

Combine the egg whites and sugar in a metal bowl that will fit over the saucepan of water (without touching) and place it over the saucepan, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely or the temperature reaches 65°C.
- Pour the egg whites and sugar into a stand mixer, and whisk for 10 minutes and until the bowl of the stand mixer has cooled. Add the 1/4 cup milo and fold in to combine. Using a large spoon, drop 6 even dollops of merinuge onto a lined baking tray and sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon of Milo over the meringues.
- Turn the oven temperature down to 150°C (300°F), place the tray in the oven and bake for 1 hour and a half after which, remove them from the oven and set aside to cool.
