Best Coconut Mound Balls Recipes
MOUNDS BALLS
I make these bite-sized treats as gifts for friends-and I get lots of thank-you notes in return. The mailman doesn't mind delivering them, though. He gets a box of candy, too! We have three generations of family working together on our dairy farm in the "thumb" of Michigan. Everyone agrees these milky morsels promote our product deliciously. -Kathy Dorman, Snover, Michigan

BAKED COCONUT BALLS
During the traditional Mimouna celebration at the end of Passover, many Israeli Jews lay out an elaborate table with sweets. Because dietary rules during the holiday ban flour from the house (including frozen cookies that contain it), the treats are usually flourless. Here, ground coconut turns the texture of these cookies into a soft and pleasantly cloudlike.

Steps:
- Make the cookies: Heat oven to 325 degrees. In a medium bowl, add the coconut, jam or syrup or honey, baking powder and egg yolks and beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until well combined.
- Squeeze the mixture together to form small balls, about 1 inch wide, and roll them in confectioners' sugar to fully coat. Transfer the balls to a parchment-lined baking sheet lightly coated with cooking spray, spacing them 1 inch apart. Bake for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the glaze: In a small pot over medium-low heat, whisk together the apricot jam and 1/4 cup water until warm. Remove from heat and pour into a small bowl.
- Let the balls cool completely on the sheet pan, then dip one side into the glaze. Return to the pan, glaze side facing up, and sprinkle immediately with the pistachios, almonds, sprinkles or anything else you wish.

MOUNDS BALLS
This is something I make every Christmas with my mom. They're easy and remind me of Mounds bars. I roll about thirty medium sized balls out of each recipe but you can certainly try different sizes and shapes! Enjoy!
