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 sure how I feel about the idea of using strawberry gelatin in these snowballs. I think I'll stick to the traditional recipe.

These snowballs remind me of my childhood. My mom used to make them for us every Christmas. I can't wait to make them for my own kids.

These were so fun to make! My kids loved helping me mix the ingredients and roll the balls. They turned out so pretty and they tasted even better. We'll definitely be making these again.

These pink snowballs were a hit! They were so easy to make and they turned out so festive. I used pink lemonade mix instead of strawberry gelatin and they were still delicious. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
