Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk (1 can)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
- 3 cups sweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs, plus extra for rolling
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Add-ins
- ½ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Mix the base: In a large bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Stir vigorously until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Add the dry ingredients: To the base mixture, add the shredded coconut, graham cracker crumbs, salt, and chocolate chips. Stir thoroughly to distribute all ingredients evenly throughout the mixture.
- Chill the mixture: Cover the mixture and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour to allow it to firm up, making it easier to handle for shaping.
- Form into balls: Once chilled, scoop the mixture and form it into 1-inch diameter balls using your hands for consistency in size.
- Coat the balls: Roll each ball in additional graham cracker crumbs until fully coated, adding a nice texture and flavor contrast on the outside.
- Rest and set: Place the coated balls back in the refrigerator for another 30 minutes to allow them to set firmly before serving.
Notes
- Use sweetened shredded coconut for the best flavor and texture.
- Ensure butter is softened to room temperature for easy mixing.
- Chilling times can be adjusted based on your refrigerator’s cooling power but aim for at least 30 minutes each time.
- These treats are best served chilled but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- For a nutty twist, consider adding finely chopped nuts to the mixture.
