Upload a Photo
Ready in: 2-5 hrs
Difficulty: 3 (1=easiest :: hardest=5)
Serves/Makes: 6.5 dozen
Ingredients:
2 pounds powdered sugar
1 (12 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups coconut*
1/4 cup butter; softened
***Coating***
16 ounces semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
2 1/2 tablespoons shortening
Directions:
Mix together all ingredients; chill. Form into 1-inch balls; chill again on waxed paper lined cookie sheet. Dip in a chocolate coating. Chill for another hour.
*original recipe calls for 2 cans or 3/4 of a large bag of coconut. So 2 cup is a guess on my part, based on the size of a bag of coconut.
For Coating: Melt chocolate & shortening over low heat; stirring constantly (use 1 Tbls of shortening for every 6 oz. of chocolate).
