Snowman Truffles
These coconut snowmen truffles are cute, easy and fun to prepare and are perfect for Christmas! They consist of 2-ingredient coconut truffles and store-bought decorations.
Servings: 12 snowmen
Ingredients
Coconut Snowmen Truffles
- 320 g (11.25 oz) dairy-free sweetened condensed milk, 1 regular can, (note 2)
- 4 cups (320g) fine shredded coconut / desiccated coconut, plus extra for rolling
To Decorate
- 3 tablespoons vegan white chocolate, or white candy melts, melted and as needed
- 3 tablespoons black-colored icing, or as needed
- 2 tablespoons orange-colored icing, or as needed
- 24 thin pretzel sticks, 2 inches (5 cm) each
- 12 red candy straps, 5 inches (13 cm) each
Instructions
Make the snowmen:
- Add the coconut and sweetened condensed milk to a large mixing bowl. Mix with a wooden spoon or hand mixer until well combined.
- Divide and roll the mixture into around 12 larger balls and 12 smaller balls. These will be the snowmen bodies and heads.
- Roll the coconut balls in extra coconut.
- Pair each larger ball with a smaller ball. Dab some white chocolate on the larger balls and stick a smaller ball on top. Allow the coconut snowmen to firm up at room temperature or in the fridge.
Decorate the snowmen:
- Using piping bags or toothpicks, draw the black icing on the snowmen to make eyes and buttons. Draw the orange icing on the snowmen to make noses.
- If desired, insert the pretzel sticks into the snowmen to make arms. Wrap the snowmen's necks with red candy. If needed, use melted white chocolate to 'stick' the items in place.
- Store the snowmen truffles in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 day, in the fridge for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 1 month. The pretzel sticks will soften over time.
Notes
- The number of snowmen you'll get will depend on how large you roll your coconut truffles.
- If you can't access sweetened condensed milk, you can use 1 cup (240g) thick scoopable coconut cream and ¼ cup (85g) maple syrup. Your final mixture will be less sticky than the original and you may need to add more coconut or maple syrup.
