Ferrero Raffaello Candy Recipe
Description
This recipe combines sugar and unsalted butter until creamy before incorporating dry milk powder, crushed vanilla wafers, almond extract, and finely shredded coconut flakes. The mixture forms a paste-like consistency suitable for shaping. Each candy is formed around a roasted almond, which adds textural contrast and richness.
The candies are then rolled in additional shredded coconut to coat their surface, reinforcing the coconut flavor profile. This no-bake method results in a firm, sweet confection with a smooth, slightly crumbly texture contrasted by the crunch of the almond inside.
These candies can serve as homemade treats or gifts and require minimal equipment besides mixing and shaping tools. They present an alternative to store-bought versions by using common pantry ingredients.
Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup butter room temperature, unsalted
- 2 cup dry milk
- 1 1/2 cup coconut flakes shredded into tiny pieces, unsweetened
- 1 cup vanilla wafers
- 1 tsp almond extract cut in half
- 1/2 cup almond roasted
- 1/2 cup coconut flakes for coating, shredded into tiny pieces, unsweetened
- 2 oz cream cheese add only if the texture is crumbly
Instructions
- Combine sugar together with butter until the texture is creamy.
- Mix dry milk into the butter.
- Crush wafers. The easiest, most mess-free way to do this is by placing cookies in a bag and crushing them with a rolling pin or a meat tenderizer. Add wafers, almond extract and tiny pieces of coconut flakes into the mixture and mix until you get a paste-like texture.
- Using an ice cream scoop, place 1/2 of the almond inside and make a small round piece.
- Roll each candy into coconut flakes. Repeat for each piece.
