Two of the easiest recipes ever invented – just mix all the ingredients together and leave them to set in the fridge.

Here are the recipes:

RUM BALLS

Ingredients

1 packet arrowroot biscuits (another bland, sweet biscuit would do)
3 Tbs cocoa
1 cup finely desiccated coconut
3 Tbs rum (okay, I used about 5…)
1 tin condensed milk
chocolate sprinkles, cocoa or extra coconut for rolling

Method

Crush the biscuits into fine pieces (this is where a food processor would have come in handy!) and mix the ingredients together. Shape into evenly sized balls, roll in chocolate sprinkles (or extra coconut) and refrigerate until firm.

APRICOT BALLS

Ingredients

500g diced apricots
2 cups finely desiccated coconut
1 tin condensed milk
1/2 cup of chopped macadamias or almonds
extra coconut for rolling

Method

Take it from me, buy your apricots pre-diced. Apricot balls look best when all the ingredients are chopped fairly finely, including the coconut they’re rolled in.

As above, combine all the ingredients and roll into evenly sized balls. Roll in extra coconut, and refrigerate until firm.
