Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- ½ cup (120 milliliters) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup (100 grams) graham cracker crumbs
- 2 cups (150 grams) shredded sweetened coconut
Optional Coating Ingredients:
- 1 cup (175 grams) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Powdered sugar
Flavoring Ingredient:
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare a spacious mixing vessel and combine shredded coconut, graham cracker crumbs, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Thoroughly blend the ingredients until a cohesive, slightly tacky mixture forms.
- Utilize clean hands or a compact cookie scoop to craft uniform spherical treats, approximately one inch in diameter. Gently position each orb onto a parchment-lined baking surface.
- Transfer the assembled delicacies to the refrigerator, allowing them to solidify and maintain their structured shape for a minimum of half an hour.
- For chocolate enthusiasts, carefully melt chocolate chips using intermittent microwave intervals, stirring consistently until achieving a silky, glossy texture. Delicately immerse each chilled sphere into the molten chocolate, permitting excess to cascade back into the bowl. Alternatively, for a more rustic presentation, generously dust the orbs with powdered sugar, creating a delicate, snow-like coating.
- Once decorated, arrange the confections on the parchment paper, permitting the chocolate to set or the powdered sugar to adhere completely.
- Transfer the finished treats to an hermetic container, storing them within the refrigerator’s cool environment. These delectable morsels will maintain optimal taste and texture for approximately one week. Serve slightly chilled or allow to rest at ambient temperature for a softer, more indulgent experience.
Notes
- Customize the texture by adjusting the amount of sweetened condensed milk for a softer or firmer bite.
- Experiment with different coatings like crushed nuts, sprinkles, or toasted coconut for added crunch and flavor variety.
- For a gluten-free version, swap graham cracker crumbs with gluten-free cookie crumbs or ground almonds.
- Make these treats vegan-friendly by using coconut condensed milk and dairy-free chocolate chips for coating.
