Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Crushed pineapple (canned, drained well)
- 0.5 cup Sweetened condensed milk
- 1.5 cups Vanilla wafer cookies (crushed into fine crumbs)
- 0.25 cup Powdered sugar
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut (optional, for rolling)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the drained crushed pineapple and sweetened condensed milk. Stir well until fully mixed.
Gradually add the crushed vanilla wafer crumbs to the pineapple mixture, stirring until the mixture forms a dough-like consistency.
Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, scoop out portions of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls with your hands.
Place the powdered sugar in a shallow bowl. If desired, place the shredded coconut in a separate shallow bowl as an additional coating option.
Roll each pineapple ball in powdered sugar, ensuring an even coating. Alternatively, roll some of the balls in shredded coconut for variety.
Arrange the coated balls on a tray or plate. Once all the balls are shaped and coated, refrigerate them for at least 1 hour to firm up.
Serve chilled and enjoy your Pineapple Pop Em Balls!
