Coconut Balls (Snowman)
You know that I was one of the jury members of the star of the kitchen competition last month. The 10 recipes that made it to the final were prepared for us by the competitors for 2 days and presented to us. That's when I decided to try some of the recipes, each more beautiful and delicious than the other. The snow that fell all day reminded me of these delicious coconut delights, the snowmen as Mine was named.
These stylish Turkish delights were a wonderful treat to accompany Turkish coffee. I made some changes to the recipe. For example, instead of powdered sugar or granulated sugar, I used the meringue left at home by crushing it with my hand. Also, I didn't have to apply chocolate to stick the beads, as I left the marshmallows a little more moist.
I think sugar is ideal, but sugar may be low for some, so I recommend you to adjust the amount of sugar according to yourself by tasting it from time to time while kneading the dough. In addition, it would be better to have some more coconut on hand, as there may be changes in consistency due to material differences.
Finally, next to this recipe Turkish coffee except hot chocolate You can prepare and serve.
Love…
Ingredients for Coconut Balls (Snowman) Recipe
- 3-4 cups of coconut
- 1 cup + 1 coffee cup powdered milk
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 200 ml raw cream (Box milk cream)
- 2-3 tablespoons of labneh cheese
- Pretzel to keep balls on top of each other
For decoration:
- Small colored cake beads
- 2-3 packs of bonbons
- 2 dried apricots or 2-3 slices of carrots
How to Make Coconut Balls (Snowman) Recipe
- Beat the sugar and cream for 3-4 minutes until the sugar dissolves.
- Add labneh, 3 cups of coconut and powdered milk and knead. Keep adding coconut, little by little, until the dough is a rollable consistency.
- Make large and small balls and drizzle in coconut.
- Divide the pretzel along the lengths of the coconut balls you stacked. Take the part that will form the body of the snowmen on the serving plate, stick the pretzel and fix the head by placing the other ball on it.
- Make snowmen's eyes and buttons with cake beads. Attach noses by cutting tiny triangles out of apricot or carrot.
- Serve with bonbondon caps on. (If the hat does not stick, stick it with cream or labneh.)
my daughter's teacher made this from puff pastry, she took some colored candy in the form of a hat that was transferred to her eyes, and chocolate, that was transferred to her mouth in a bonbon press, she made a hat and wore it on garbage skewers, it looked very practical and fun, which was nice but time consuming
How many people does it have? good luck
Can we use something else instead of cream?
You can only use cream.
I'm going to make the snowman today. Do we put 3 glasses of coconut on the dough and separate the other 1 glass from the outside? Also, if I do it on a Friday night, will it break into the daytime?
friends, let me answer my own question, I did it on Friday, it was great.. They turned into stones on Saturday. You need to cook and eat it on the same day. Also, 3 glasses of coconut is enough, it leaves a very intense taste in the mouth.
Hello, they look so cute I decided to make them for my son's birthday party but where can I find the powdered milk, thanks
merhaba
How many hours can snowmen last? So if we want to put it on the table in the evening, will it last if we make it during the day? thanks in advance
But don't worry.. It should be consumed within 1-2 hours. Otherwise, the coconuts will swell and leave a dry taste in the mouth.
mrblar. I made this recipe and it was very good. But since I couldn't find powdered milk, I used 1 pack of powdered whipped cream instead. It was 15-16 pieces.
Hello, 1 package of whipped powder is less than 1 glass of milk powder. That's why it's less.
Hello, your recipe is amazing. I'm going to make it for Christmas, but you say, beat this sugar and cream for 3-4 minutes until the sugar melts, you say, let's cook it on the stove or whisk it with a mixer.. I don't quite understand, can the cream be raw or uncooked? I hope I can do well. Thank you very much for your recipe. Happy New Years..
Hello, there is no baking in this recipe. We melt it away. What we call raw cream is the pasteurized box cream that is already sold in the markets. Love…
YES I Bought CREAM. MY MATERIALS ARE READY AT HOME. MY ONLY MIND WAS COOKING OR I WOULD HAVE MADE THE SUGAR WITH MY MIXER. I LEARNED HIM THANK YOU SO MUCH HEALTHY HANDS LOVE YOU HAVE A GOOD DAY.
mrb. it's a very good recipe. i will make it for my son's birthday, but I wonder if we can use powdered whipped cream instead of milk powder.
Hello, I have not tried this recipe with whipped powder. I used whipped cream in semolina balls, but check it out if you want.
It's not coffee cream, is it powdered milk?
Is powdered milk available in Germany?
By the way, sooooo good recipes, so naturally I'm following you :)
We tried your recipe with my son. It was very delicious, we made it with great pleasure. I also added very finely ground hazelnuts. A very nutritious recipe. I used real milk powder thank you very much
It looks really good, thank you very much :) I want to make it too for his birthday, but how many servings are made with this recipe, could you please let me know?
Hello, around 18-20.
You wrote sugar, but there is only powdered sugar in the recipe.
The sugar is powdered sugar, the other comes in your mouth crunchy because it doesn't melt.
Hello, I made it and I brought it to my workplace, all the ladies liked it :)))
I've been looking forward to making it since the first day I saw it and I did it today. They're so sweet but I'd like to say that it went too much coconut ;)
HELLO, How many people asked, I finally made it and saw how many came out. According to the size of the snowman, it turns out to be between 18-20.
hello, how sweet they look, I wonder how many pieces can be according to the recipe, I want to surprise my students….

Thank you very much, Ms. Behice, we will definitely enjoy it :)
how many can come out of this recipe, the number is important, can someone help????
I went as milk powder, I went and searched for a special one, I bought it, whole milk powder, that is original, that is, it is not the one that is put in coffee, but I wonder if it can be done with it??
looks great
According to these measurements, how many snowmen will appear on average?
Hello, Snow guys are so cute :) !
I have a question: "What happens to 200 ml of cig cream (canned milk cream)?
Thanks in advance for the answer…
Hello, box cream sold in markets. Yours sincerely
I made it 2 hours ago, it's incredibly practical and delicious. My wife and 6-year-old son fainted. My other son, who is 4 months old, also looked confused and wanted to eat, but he needs to wait for his birthday :-))) I will make it for the domestic goods week on Wednesday and send it to my son's class. good luck with your work
hello, I am newly married, I want to surprise my wife, but I wonder how many people can come out of this material, by the way, it looks really very nice :)
I'm waiting for an answer too, please… How many if I make it according to your recipe? Number matters
Hello, I like your recipe very much. I am planning to make it. I wonder if this powdered milk will be one of the ones put in coffee? And should we put a sweet stick as a stick, won't salt spoil the taste? thanks in advance :)
Hello, first of all, thanks. Yes, powdered milk in coffee will be used, sweet bars will be more suitable. Yours sincerely
I tried it, they are great, just take the coconut a little more, it may not be enough
hello, I like the recipe very much, I am planning to make it for my son's school, I wonder how many will come out according to the current recipe.
I couldn't get the dough together, it's much more coconut than in the recipe; but I finally made it. I made snowmen to send to my son's daycare tomorrow :))
They look very nice. I'm thinking of making them for Christmas. The point that I don't quite understand is that we use milk powder instead of milk, right? If we try to make it with milk, won't the recipe be as we want? good health to your hands.
You must use milk powder, cream liquid milk liquid, it is not possible to collect that dough and its taste will change.
you are so cute, they look so beautiful, may everyone have a sweet new year :))
