Today I'd like to share a family recipe with you. Last week, the librarians all got together and made goody trays for the other city departments. We each brought or made a recipe of our own. Our director, Sarah, brought her mom's recipe for coconut balls and they were a huge hit!!! So, I thought I'd share it so you could try it this Christmas season with your own families....
Sarah's Mom's Coconut Balls
Filling:
1 bag coconut flakes
1 bag powdered sugar
1 stick butter
1 can sweetened condensed milk
Coating:
1 bag dark chocolate chips
1/3 to 1/2 block Gulf paraffin wax
Combine filling ingredients and roll into small balls. Melt chocolate chips and wax together in a double boiler. Cool slightly then dip the balls until totally covered. Let cool and harden on wax paper. Voila!!! Yummy coconut balls. Store refrigerated or out on your freezer in the garage! :)
yeah, I pretty much couldn't get enough of these. :) They are amazing!!
