Cocoa Coconut Balls Easy Food

LOW CARB COCONUT COCOA BALLS

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, use a fork or whisk to mix together the sugar free powdered sugar and the unsweetened cocoa. Then stir in the unsweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, coconut oil and 1 cup of the coconut flakes. At some point you will probably need to knead this by hand.Place this mixture in the refrigerator for at least a half hour to allow it to set.
• Prepare cookie or baking sheets with parchment paper . Place the remaining coconut flakes in a shallow bowl or plate.
• Using a scoop or tablespoon, scoop mixture from the bowl and then shape the mix into balls- about 1- 1 1/2″. Then roll the balls in the remaining coconut and place on the prepared baking sheet. Cover and return this to the refrigerator or freeze to firm up. Store these balls individually wrapped or covered well with wax paper or parchment paper separating the layers if layered.

EASY NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE COCONUT BALLS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine confectioners' sugar and cocoa; stir in the sweetened condensed milk and the vanilla, mixing thoroughly. The mixture will be quite stiff. Stir or knead in coconut and nuts, if using. A heavy-duty mixer with paddle attachment makes mixing much easier, or use the dough hook attachment on a handheld mixer.
• Chill the chocolate mixture for about 15 to 20 minutes, then shape into 1-inch balls. If the mixture is sticky, butter your hands if necessary.
• Arrange the candy balls on a baking sheet lined with wax paper or parchment paper . Cover the candy and chill the cocoa balls for at least 2 hours, or until they are quite firm.
• Store the chocolate coconut candies in tightly covered containers separated with sheets of waxed paper.
• Enjoy.
