How to make:

      Delicious Chocolate Coconut Balls

When I was a kid I used to love making (and eating!) these chocolate coconut balls. My favorite part was crushing the biscuits in a bag with a rolling pin and rolling the chocolate mixture into balls. 

Well, surprise! My kids feel the same way and LOVE making them with me. 

It is so delicious and easy to make and a great activity to do with the kids for nice, good quality time.

By the way - They are also great for birthday parties or even wrapped in a ribbon tied cellophane bag and given as a small appreciation gift :)  

Hope you enjoy!
