Tips:

  • Use unsweetened coconut flakes for a healthier option.
  • Toast the coconut flakes in a pan over medium heat for a few minutes to enhance their flavor.
  • Be careful not to overmix the dough, as this will make the snowballs tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it into balls, as this will make it easier to handle.
  • Roll the snowballs in powdered sugar immediately after dipping them in the melted chocolate, as this will help the sugar to stick.
  • Store the snowballs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
