INGREDIENTS
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk (approx. 400 g)
- 50 g butter
- 160-200 g shredded coconut and 100 g shredded coconut for coating
INSTRUCTIONS
- 1Melt the butter in the microwave or a small saucepan. Scrape the contents of the condensed milk can into a bowl, pour in the butter, and add 150-160 g of coconut. Mix everything and let it firm up and solidify slightly in the refrigerator for at least an hour or until the next day.
- 2After removing from the refrigerator, check the mixture to see if balls can be formed from it. If not, thicken it with a little more coconut, but you shouldn't need more than 40-50 g.
- 3Lay two paper napkins on top of each other and sprinkle the coconut for coating onto them. Use a spoon to scoop out pieces of the solidified coconut mixture, shape them slightly into balls with your fingertips, even if not perfectly round, and drop them into the prepared coconut. Coat them, and only then finalize the shape of the balls and, if necessary, roll them in coconut once more. Place them into paper cups, store in a cool place.
- 4Due to the ingredients used, the balls are intended for quick consumption, which is usually not a problem. They are very unlikely to last until the post-Christmas phase called 'you're not eating any of this!'
Tip
For preparation, you will need small paper cups.

Pesto from vegetable greens is a great way to use the whole vegetable and avoid waste. It tastes great with fresh pasta, on toasted bread, or as a seasoning for soups. Store in the refrigerator in a sealed jar covered with a layer of oil. Enjoy!
