Hello nerds. Merry belated Christmas to all! I would apologize for not updating sooner, but really, it's Christmas break. Today I'm actually going to be posting 3 recipes. These are the recipes that we made for Christmas sweets but I never got around to writing the blog posts for.
This first recipe is for something that resembles a coconut truffle in taste and a peanut butter cup in appearance. They are not incredibly time consuming, but will take a few hours to make. They are very sugary and very coconuty. I happen to hate coconut. With a passion that burns as strong as the sun itself. So I have no input on this recipe other than that my entire family seems to love them. That's 6 against 1 for those of you that like statistics. Maybe that will be enough to convince you that they taste good...
Ingredients:
3 cups sweetened, shredded coconut
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup coconut oil melted
milk chocolate melting chocolate. ( make sure to have plenty of this)
Directions:
1. Set plenty of melting chocolate to melt on a medium heat.
2. In a large bowl combine coconut and powdered sugar.
3. Add the milk and coconut oil. Stir constantly until it's reached a gooey consistency. Set aside.
4. Line an mini cupcake tray with mini cupcake liners and pour enough melted chocolate in each one to just cover the bottom. Set in the fridge(or freezer if your in a huge hurry) and let harden.
5. Scoop 1/2 table spoon of the coconut filling into each cupcake liner and cover with chocolate.
6. Place in the fridge again to harden.
7. Repeat steps 3-6 until all the coconut filling in used up.
Little tips from me:
Add 1/4 cup brown sugar for each recipe you make to give it some depth.
If you make a double recipe you can use the entire can of condensed milk. It's easier than measuring.
