Coconut Snowballs Delight: A Tropical Treat

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups sweetened condensed milk
• 2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
• ¼ cup coconut oil, melted
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Coconut Coating

• ½ cup toasted coconut flakes
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional)

Lime‑Honey Glaze

• ¼ cup fresh lime juice
• 2 tablespoons honey
• ¼ teaspoon flaky sea salt

Instructions

Shaping the Snowballs

1. Portion the dough. Using a tablespoon or small ice‑cream scoop, portion the mixture into 12 equal parts. This ensures uniform size and even chilling.
2. Roll into balls. Between your palms, roll each portion into a smooth sphere about 1‑inch in diameter. The heat of your hands helps smooth the surface and prevents cracks.
3. Coat with toasted coconut. Place ½ cup toasted coconut flakes in a shallow dish. Gently roll each ball in the flakes until fully covered. The toasted flakes create a light, crunchy shell that contrasts the soft interior.
4. Optional sweet dust. If you prefer a sweeter finish, lightly dust the coated balls with 2 tablespoons powdered sugar. This step adds a subtle sparkle without overwhelming the citrus glaze.
