Ingredients
- 2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 0.75 cups Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 1.5 cups Shredded sweetened coconut
- 0.5 cups Festive sprinkles (optional, for decoration)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, powdered sugar, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Stir well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly mixed.
Step 2
Add the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly using a spatula or your hands until the mixture forms a sticky dough.
Step 3
Stir in 1 cup of shredded sweetened coconut, reserving the remaining 0.5 cup for coating later.
Step 4
Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball between your palms. Repeat with the rest of the dough until you have formed about 20 balls.
Step 5
Spread the reserved shredded coconut and festive sprinkles (if using) on a plate. Roll each ball in the coconut or sprinkles to coat them evenly.
Step 6
Place the coated balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet or tray.
Step 7
Refrigerate the Christmas Balls for at least 1 hour to set. Serve chilled and enjoy!
