Homemade Raffaello - Almond Coconut Candies Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by ctozzi

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/3 cup skim milk powder (1/3 cup)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
35 whole, blanched almonds
1 1/2 cups unsweetened coconut flakes, divided

Steps:

  • Mix the condensed milk, milk powder and butter until all ingredients are combined. Add 1 cup coconut flakes and mix well. Chill for about 30 minutes, until firm enough to handle. If the coconut mixture is too sticky and you cannot easily form balls just add more coconut flakes. Take one teaspoon of the coconut mixture, place one almond in the middle and shape into small balls (the size of Raffaello candies). Roll each candy in coconut and you're done. Store the candies in your refrigerator.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients. Use fresh, unsweetened coconut flakes, smooth almond butter, and creamy white chocolate for the best results.
  • Chill the mixture before shaping. This will help the candies set more quickly and evenly.
  • Use a cookie scoop to shape the candies. This will help you create uniform-sized candies.
  • Roll the candies in toasted coconut flakes. This will give them a delicious crunch and extra coconut flavor.
  • Store the candies in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will keep for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

These Coconut Raffaello Candies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with just a few simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking. Whether you are looking for a sweet snack or a special gift, these candies are sure to please everyone.
