| Chocolate Covered Coconut Snowball |
This old school treat is a labor of love and the perfect
rainy day project for parents and kids. Cream-filled chocolate cupcakes covered
with marshmallow fluff and colorful coconut flakes. I’d like to get into a
snowball fight with one of these, baby!
This is one of the things I enjoy the most
during Christmas season and I thought I'd share it with you people! :D
Ingredients
- 30 servings
- coconut balls
- 150 ml water
- 250 grams sugar
- 200 grams dry coconut
- chocolate mousse
- 50 grams dark chocolate
- 50 ml whipping cream
- 15 grams unsalted butter
- chocolate cover
- 300 grams dark chocolate
Steps (120 mins)
- Mix the water and the sugar and bring to boil. The syrup will be done when, after cooling your fingers with icecold water, the syrup forms soft threads that break easily.
- Stir the syrup until it's white and then mix it with the coconut. Let it cool down.
- Melt the butter and add the chocolate until it melts completely.
- Whip the cream until it's done and quicly stir in the melted chocolate. Use a pastry bag bit a small end to make small dots. Put them in the freezer until they hard so they don't melt in your hands.
- Once hard start making balls with thr coconut, placing a dot in the middle. Put the balls for 45min. in the freezer.
- Melt the chocolate at bain-marie (a.k.a water bath) and bath the frozen coconut balls, put them on a baking sheet and let the chocolate harden.
- Must be kept in the fridge because it contains dietary products.
- You can mix orange zest or lemon zest in them to give them an extra-punch ;)
