Hey everyone! I hope your all having a fun and great day :) I did my Christmas shopping yesterday and worked a bit too hard at the gym so I'm seriously sore today lol so I thought I would have a relaxing day, watching season 8 of Friends and I felt the need to do some baking and I remembered a yummy recipe for apricot balls from my younger years ;) I thought I would post up a few pictures along with the recipe since it's Christmas time and you may want to try it out your self.
Ingredients
~ 100g butter
~ 3/4 cup of sweetened condensed milk
~ 1 cup of coconut
~ punch of salt
~ 1 1/2 cup of chopped up apricots or how many you want to use
~ 1/2 cup of coconut to roll balls in
~ 1x griffins malt biscuits (do this last)
Instructions
~ melt butter in bowl and Crush the malt biscuits while butter is melting. Crush the biscuits to your satisfaction, I left some bits chunky for texture. I put the biscuits on handy kitchen towels and one sheet on top then just used the bottom of a drink bottle to crush the biscuits.
~ add condensed milk to butter and mix together.
~ add salt, coconut, chopped up apricots and mix together.
~ add in biscuits (do this quite fast) make sure all the biscuits are evenly throughout the bowl, so at the bottom there isn't the condensed milk with the biscuits making them soggy.
~ lastly, roll into balls, roll them around in the extra coconut and put on tray then put into fridge to set. Mine where in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
I give this recipe 9.5/10, I wish I had more crunchy bits in it but other then that it was puuuurfect :) this would be a perfect treat for Christmas Day when having guests over or just for your family plus it's pretty simple and so yum!!!
Thank you for reading my blog :) if you do try this recipe let me know in the comments how you get on :) I also have some other baking related posts that I'll put up soon :) enjoy the rest of your day and I'll write again soon xx
Lots of love :)
