Ingredients

2 cups BAKER'S ANGEL FLAKE Coconut
1 pkg. (3 oz.) JELL-O Strawberry Flavor Gelatin
1/4 cup finely chopped walnuts
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1 cup red colored sugar

Steps:

Mix the grated coconut with the gelatin in a big bowl until the coconut looks red.
Put the mix in the blender/processor and blend a little, do not mix too much that you end up with pulverized coconut; you still want to end up with coconut that has long strands.
Add the walnuts; they should be finely chopped so that they mix well with the coconut.
Add condensed milk and mix thoroughly.
Using the mix, make little balls with your hands, it will be a little sticky but easy to handle.
The size can change but they shouldn't be too big.
Put the red-colored sugar in a small plate and roll each treat on it until completely covered with sugar.
Place them in the small baking cups (liners).
Let them cool down in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Keep the treats always refrigerated until you serve them. They can also be kept at room temperature.
