Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 200 grams Low-fat sweetened condensed milk
- 30 pieces Blanched almonds
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 30 grams Coconut milk powder
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine 100 grams of the shredded coconut and the coconut milk powder. Mix well to ensure the coconut milk powder is evenly distributed.
Add the low-fat sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract to the coconut mixture. Stir until the mixture is well combined and sticky.
Take a small portion of the mixture (about a tablespoon) and flatten it slightly in your palm.
Place one blanched almond in the center and carefully fold the coconut mixture around it, rolling it into a smooth ball.
Repeat this process until all the coconut mixture and almonds are used up.
Roll each candy in the remaining 20 grams of shredded coconut to coat the outside evenly.
Place the finished candies on a parchment-lined tray and chill them in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to set.
Serve chilled and enjoy your low-fat homemade Raffaello candies as a sweet treat!
