Coconut Pecan Balls Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl mix together the nuts, condensed milk, almond extract and coconut. Using your fingers, press the mixture into balls about 3/4-inch round. Place onto sheet trays and let rest at room temperature for 4 hours or in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• After the balls have set up, melt the chocolate and shortening until smooth. Dip into the chocolate to coat evenly and lightly. Place onto a parchment or foil lined sheet pan to dry.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Grease a 10-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan with gluten-free cooking spray. Line the pan with an overhanging piece of parchment paper to easily remove the bars.
• Place the almonds, coconut, pecans, cereal, rice syrup, molasses, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl. Stir to combine and evenly coat. Transfer the coconut mixture to the prepared pan and, using a greased piece of parchment paper, press down firmly to spread evenly. Bake until just firm, about 12 minutes. Let cool completely on a rack.
• Reduce the oven to 250 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and place a wire rack on top. Remove the coconut bar from the pan and cut evenly into 6 bars. Place, gooey-side up, on the wire rack. Bake until almost dry to the touch, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely on a rack.
