Jelly sweety balls rolled in shredded coconut and placed in a plate to be served.

Jello-sweety-balls….Mmmm
You will not know how simple they are to make and how good they taste until you try them!

When it comes to kids parties I like to make all kinds of different treats for the kids. (Sometimes more healthier than other times….) This recipe along with my peanut brittle are always hits at any kids party! Find this recipe here: https://livingdelish.com/peanut-brittle/

But this Jello-sweety-balls is one of those “only because it Soooooo goooood” recipes. This classic treat always makes its way to the kids party table. I remember them actually from my childhood days. Visiting my friend and her mom always use to make these. They clearly made an impression on me. 😂 I think it’s a lot to do with how easy they are to make, and with only a few ingredients they come together in a matter of 5 minutes!! What more do you want? Let’s face it, any form of Jello is always a big hit with the little ones. I like to make different colors or jello flavors. Something for everyone. Yummy!!


Ingredients

1 can condensed milk
200g shredded coconut
2 packs of jelly powder
extra shredded coconut to roll the sweets in

Mix the condensed milk and the jelly powder together, then add the shredded coconut.

(If you are making two different colors, share the condensed milk between two bowls, in each bowl add 1 pack of jelly. Also split the shredded coconut between the bowls )

Now roll spoonful of mixture into balls, using your hands, then roll them in the extra shredded coconut. Place them in the fridge to set.

Once they are set you can pack them into little bags, if you are sending them to school, or simply place on a serving dish. They do not have to stay in the fridge. Enjoy your Jello-sweety-balls!

Makes +/- 30 balls, depending on the size.
