Description
Chocolate coconut cream balls are a delicious and easy treat. Made with just four ingredients, these coconut balls make a great handheld dessert or gift.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (14 ounce) bag sweetened shredded coconut (Bakers Angel Flake recommended)
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 (10 ounce) chocolate melts (Ghirardelli Milk Chocolate Melting Wafers or chocolate almond bark)
Instructions
- Place the coconut, powdered sugar, and sweetened condensed milk in a large bowl.
- Stir the ingredients together until completely combined.
- Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Spray hands with non-stick cooking spray and form the mixture into small balls.
- Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet. Put in the refrigerator for at least an hour or until the balls are stiff. (If you are in a hurry, you can place them in the freezer to set faster.)
- Put the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl or cup. Microwave in 30-second intervals until the chocolate melts.
- Use a fork to dip the balls in the melted chocolate. Place on another baking sheet lined with wax paper.
- Once all of the balls have been covered with chocolate, place them back in the refrigerator until the chocolate has set.
- Serve or keep in the refrigerator until ready to eat.
Notes
- Use non-stick cooking spray for easier handling.
- Freeze the balls for faster setting if needed.
