Ingredients
- 200 g desiccated coconut
- 200 g condensed milk
- 50 g Soften butter
- 180 g dark chocolate (optional)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add the desiccated coconut, soften butter and condensed milk.
- Use a spatula to mix everything together into a sticky mixture.
- Shape balls out of the mixture, I got 16, but you can get more or less depending on how big the balls are.
- If you decorate them with desiccated coconut only, coat each ball into coconut, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- If you wish to coat them in chocolate, break the chocolate into pieces, and add them to a bowl set over a pan of simmering water.
- When the chocolate is melted and smooth, add a ball at a time, and coat well, then use a fork to remove it from the chocolate, and transfer it to a tray lined with non-stick paper.
- If you want to add more coconut to them, sprinkle some before the chocolate sets.
- Refrigerate, then enjoy!
