No-bake coconut balls are one of the housewives\u2019 biggest favorites: they\u2019re foolproof, quick, and almost everyone loves them. This is the sweet that you can never have enough of!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s the classic basic recipe, and a slightly healthier, \u201csecret\u201d version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\ud83e\udd65 Classic Coconut Balls (The Fastest Version)
I. Ingredients
$500\\,\\text{g}$ household biscuits (crushed)
$100\\,\\text{g}$ powdered sugar (or to taste)
$50\\,\\text{g}$ Dutch cocoa powder
$1\\,\\text{package}$ vanilla sugar
$150\\,\\text{g}$ soft butter
approx. $1.5\u20132\\,\\text{dl}$ milk (add gradually)
$1\\,\\text{bottle}$ rum flavoring (or real rum)
For the rolling: coconut flakes
In the middle (optional): pitted cherries (canned)
II. Preparation
In a large bowl, mix the crushed biscuits, powdered sugar, cocoa powder and vanilla sugar.
Add the soft butter, rum flavoring, then start adding the milk.
Knead until you get a well-shaped, solid mass. Important: It should not be too soft, but not too crumbly!
With wet hands, form small balls (you can put a cherry in the middle).
Roll them in coconut flakes.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour so that the flavors can come together.
\u2728 The \u201cHealthier\u201d Coconut Ball (With Date Base)

$2\\,\\text{tablespoon}$ unsweetened cocoa powder
$1\\,\\text{teaspoon}$ coconut oil

\ud83d\udca1 Tips for the perfect result
Coffee twist: If you like coffee flavors (like in the previous Linzi buns), replace part of the milk with a shot of strong espresso.
Storage: It will stay fresh in the refrigerator for days in an airtight container (if there are any left!).
Would you like me to show you a version that uses avocado? We can make surprisingly creamy and healthy \u201ctruffle\u201d-like balls from it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
