FAQs

Can I use honey instead of sweetened condensed milk?
No, sweetened condensed milk is thick and sweet, giving the right texture needed for these balls. Honey will not work the same way.

Can I freeze these chocolate coconut balls?
Yes! You can freeze them for up to 2 months. Just make sure to place them in an airtight container.

What can I use instead of graham cracker crumbs?
You can substitute with crushed cookies like Digestive biscuits or vanilla wafers for a different flavor.
