This is a delicious candy for the holiday season, and is a real hit at school concession stands. I got the recipe from my sister-in-law's mother-in -law. It does take some time, but is well worth the effort. I double the recipe to use a whole can of sweetened condensed milk.

YUMMY GOOF BALLS



Yummy Goof Balls image

These were sweet, fluffy, flaky and oh so good. They smelled like donuts while cooking! Everyone kept asking "what are you cooking?" We tried baking these too, but preferred them fried (fried always wins!). They would be great for a bake sale, after-school snack and would look pretty on a holiday dessert table. If you want to try baking, I baked them at 350 for 20 minutes on a parchment-lined cookie sheet, middle rack of the oven.

Categories     Chocolate

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 can(s) store brand or name brand bisquits
30 small marshmallows
30 small chocolate or butterscotch chips
- canoila oil to deep fry
1 cup(s) powdered sugar or brown sugar or white sugar

Steps:

  • HEAT oil for deep frying. PRESS out each cycle of each bisquit. PUT 3 marshmellows and 3 chips in middle. FOLD sides up and pinch together to seal.
  • FRY in oil, turning to get all sides golden. DRAIN. COAT "Goof Balls" with sugar of choice, they are hot so use paper bag to shake or tongs to roll around in sugar. OPTIONAL TO SAVE CALORIES you could bake and they are good just plain also.

Tips for Making Yummy Goof Balls:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will result in the best-tasting goof balls. Use real butter, not margarine, and fresh eggs. Opt for high-quality chocolate chips and creamy peanut butter.
  • Chill the dough before baking:Chilling the dough before baking helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much. For best results, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly. Bake the cookies until the edges are just set and the centers are still slightly soft.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving: Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This will help them to firm up and develop their full flavor.
  • Store the cookies in an airtight container: Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the cookies for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

Yummy goof balls are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of these delectable cookies that are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give yummy goof balls a try. You won't be disappointed!
