Coconut Snowballs
This coconut snowball recipe comes from Sainsbury's website. They would be great for a children's Christmas party! To make 20 of them you will need to gather together the following ; INGREDIENTS 125g rich tea fingers 125g almonds 75g icing sugar Zest of 1 orange 3 tablespoons rum (optional) 2 tablespoons golden syrup 175g white chocolate 100g desiccated coconut METHOD Whizz the rich tea biscuits and almonds in a food processor until they're finely ground. Add the icing sugar and orange zest, then pulse until it's all combined. In a small bowl, combine the rum (if using) with the golden syrup, and while the food processor is still running, pour the liquid into the biscuit mixture. Continue to blend until the mixture is just moist. Using a tablespoon to measure, shape the mixture into 20 balls. Leave to set on a baking sheet. Melt the white chocolate in a bowl in the microwave on a low power. Microwave at 30 second intervals to ensure the chocolate does not burn. Place the coconut into a separate small bowl. First dip the balls in the melted white chocolate, then in the coconut to cover. Return to the baking sheet and, once all the balls are covered, place in the fridge for at least 2 hours to set. Cook's tip: Try dipping the balls in dark chocolate and coating with chopped nuts for a different finish. Enjoy your coconut snowballs!
