Description

These 2-Ingredient Coconut Truffle Balls are a simple and indulgent treat combining desiccated coconut and sweetened condensed milk. Perfect for a quick dessert or a festive party snack, they are easy to prepare and delightfully creamy with a chewy texture.


Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 14 oz (400 grams) desiccated coconut
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/3 cup extra desiccated coconut, for rolling


Instructions

  1. Mix Coconut and Condensed Milk: Place the desiccated coconut in a medium bowl and pour the sweetened condensed milk over it. Using a spatula, thoroughly mix until all the coconut is fully coated with the sweetened condensed milk, creating a sticky mixture.
  2. Form Truffle Balls: Scoop a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form smooth balls. Then, roll each ball in the extra desiccated coconut to coat the exterior evenly.
  3. Chill and Serve: Place the coated truffle balls on a tray or plate and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up. Serve chilled for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • You can substitute sweetened condensed milk with a vegan condensed milk alternative to make this recipe vegan-friendly.
  • For added flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the coconut mixture before rolling.
  • Store the truffle balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • If the mixture feels too sticky to handle, chill it briefly before rolling.
