PINEAPPLE COCONUT SNOWBALLS
This recipe is from Taste of Home's Light & and Tasty Holiday Recipes 2004. These are not very sweet, but are a refreshing change of pace from the usual holiday baked goods, fudges, and candies. If you prefer a sweeter treat be sure to add sugar or sugar substitute to the mixture before rolling. I know there are many of us here at Zaar looking for good holiday treats that work with our eating plans. One snowball is 2 points.

Steps:
- When draining the pineapple, use a fine strainer to push as much juice out as possible. A reviewer has stated this makes the mixture a bit more firm and easier to work with.
- In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and pineapple.
- Mix well.
- Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Roll mixture into 1-inch balls.
- Roll in coconut.
- Refrigerate for 6 hours or overnight.
Tips:
- Prepare in advance: Coconut snowballs can be made ahead of time, making them a convenient treat to have on hand for parties or gatherings. Simply store the snowballs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Use a variety of toppings: Don't limit yourself to just coconut. Try rolling the snowballs in chopped nuts, sprinkles, or even crushed candy canes for a festive touch.
- Get the right consistency: The coconut mixture should be moist enough to hold together when rolled into balls, but not too wet that it becomes sticky. If the mixture is too dry, add a little more condensed milk. If it's too wet, add more coconut.
- Chill the snowballs before serving: Chilling the snowballs before serving helps them firm up and makes them easier to handle. You can also freeze the snowballs for a longer-lasting treat.
Conclusion:
Coconut snowballs are a classic holiday treat that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With their sweet and coconutty flavor, these bite-sized treats are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
