Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 3 cups shredded coconut
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 0.25 tsp salt
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, almond flour, and salt. Stir until a smooth dough forms.
Gradually fold in 2 cups of shredded coconut, reserving 1 cup for rolling. Mix until the dough is firm enough to shape but still slightly sticky.
Using clean hands, scoop out approximately 1 tablespoon of dough and roll it into a small ball.
Place the remaining shredded coconut in a shallow dish. Roll each ball in the coconut until fully coated to resemble snowballs.
Place the coated snowballs on a parchment-lined baking sheet or tray. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to set.
Once chilled, the snowballs are ready to serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
