Raffaello Candies

This is the simplest homemade Raffaello candies recipe you`ll ever try and I`m not joking as you`ll only need 3 ingredients. Even though this homemade Raffaello candies recipe is simple, tastes so good that you`ll never buy Raffaello candies and because you`ll use the condensed milk you won`t need sugar anymore which is even better😊
Raffaello is a spherical truffle made with coconut and almonds. These sweets were made by the Italian manufacturer Ferrero in 1990.
My family simply loves it and when I`ve took some at work I had only compliments.

Instructions

  • TIP: For extra flavour roast the almonds and let it cooldown it will give a better taste.
  • In a bowl combine the 200gr desiccated coconut with the397gr condensed milk and mix well until is incorporated.
  • Leave it for about 15 minutes to rest so the coconut can absorbs the milk very well.
  • After 15 minutes if you think the mixture is too soft you can add an extra of 30 gr of coconut, this should harden the mixture.
  • Now we need to start to form the Raffaello candies, try to form a little ball, depends on how big you want to make the Raffaello candies, after put inside one almond and reshape it to cover the almond very well.
  • In a plate place the remaining desiccated coconut.
  • Pass the little ball through the desiccated coconut and place it on a plate/bowl.
  • Please let me know if you like the recipe and I strongly advise you to try it as you won`t regret it.
