Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup almonds, toasted and finely chopped
- 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional: cocoa powder for dusting
Instructions
- Begin by toasting the almonds in a skillet over medium heat until golden brown and fragrant. Allow them to cool before chopping finely.

- Place the truffles on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate again until firm. Serve chilled and enjoy!
Notes
Tip: Keep your hands moistened slightly to prevent the mixture from sticking while rolling the truffles.
