Ingredients
- Crushed vanilla wafers weighing 11 ounces
- Sweetened flaked coconut, measuring ½ cup
- Coconut-flavored rum, in the quantity of ½ cup
- Zest of a lime
- 1 tablespoon concentrated lime juice (like Rose's®)
- Confectioners' sugar, an eighth of a cup
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine smashed wafers, delicate coconut flakes, a splash of rum, zesty lime peel, and concentrated lime juice. Stir everything together until the mixture is perfectly blended. Form the mixture into small 1-inch balls and gently coat them with a dusting of powdered sugar for a delightful finish. Optional tip: If the mixture feels too sticky, you can refrigerate it for a while to make shaping the balls easier.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Keep your coconut flakes in an airtight container to lock in their freshness and prevent them from becoming stale.
- 2. Store your lime zest in a resealable bag in the freezer to maintain its vibrant flavor and aroma for longer.
