Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 1 cup | Dry Milk |
| 1/2 cup | Peanut Butter |
| 1/4 cup | Honey |
| 2 cups | Coconut |
Instructions:
-
Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the dry milk, peanut butter, and honey. Stir until well combined, forming a thick, dough-like mixture.
-
-
Shape into Balls: Take small portions of the mixture and roll them between your palms to form 1-inch balls. Ensure each ball is evenly shaped for consistent results.
-
Coat with Coconut: Place the shredded coconut in a shallow dish. Roll each peanut ball in the coconut until all sides are evenly coated, pressing gently to adhere the coconut to the surface of the balls.
-
Chill: Arrange the coated peanut balls on a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper. Once all the balls are coated, transfer them to the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes. Chilling helps to firm up the balls and enhances the texture.
-
Serve: Once chilled, these Peanut-Coconut Dreams are ready to be enjoyed! Serve them as a delightful snack or dessert option, and watch them disappear within minutes.
Tips:
- For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a dash of vanilla extract or cinnamon to the mixture before shaping the balls.
- If the mixture feels too sticky to roll, you can chill it in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes before shaping.
- Feel free to customize these treats by incorporating chopped nuts or dried fruits into the mixture for added texture and variety.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. These treats also freeze well for longer-term storage.
