Pink Snow Balls image

These delicious decadent snow balls are cake like treats,coated in pink coconut I'm unsure of the origin's of this Pretty in Pink Treat. They resemble whoopie pies: Snow balls are neither a cookie or a pie. They have a soft cake like texture but can be moulded and shaped like scones.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but these were still really good. The frosting was delicious and the cake was moist and fluffy.

These were a little bit too messy to eat, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them with a different type of frosting next time.

These were a little bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them with a little less sugar next time.
