Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 ml Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 250 g Desiccated coconut
- 50 g Powdered sugar
- 24 pieces Almonds (optional, for filling)
- 50 g Additional desiccated coconut (for coating)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract. Mix well to combine.
Add 250 grams of desiccated coconut and powdered sugar to the bowl. Stir thoroughly until the mixture comes together to form a sticky dough.
If using almonds for filling, set them aside in a small bowl.
Scoop out a heaping tablespoon of the coconut mixture and roll it into a ball using your palms. If desired, press an almond into the center of the ball and reshape it to cover the almond completely.
Roll the formed ball in the additional desiccated coconut to coat the outside evenly.
Place the coated ball on a parchment-lined tray or plate. Repeat the process with the remaining coconut mixture.
Transfer the tray to the refrigerator and allow the coconut snowballs to chill for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Once chilled, serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
