Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 can (300ml/14oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups dried coconut
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs, plus extra for rolling
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Mix Wet Ingredients: Combine melted butter, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  2. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the graham cracker crumbs, dried coconut, and chocolate chips until everything is evenly incorporated into the mixture.
  3. Chill the Mixture: Place the bowl in the refrigerator and chill for about one hour. This step helps the mixture firm up, making it easier to shape.
  4. Shape into Balls: Once firm, scoop the mixture and roll it into 1 1/4-inch balls using your hands or a scoop for uniform size.
  5. Coat with Graham Cracker Crumbs: Roll each ball in additional graham cracker crumbs to add extra texture and a slight crunch.
  6. Final Chill: Arrange the coated balls on a baking sheet and return them to the refrigerator to chill until firm before serving. This ensures they hold their shape and have the perfect consistency.

Notes

  • For best results, use full-fat sweetened condensed milk for richness.
  • Chill the Moose Bites thoroughly before serving to maintain their shape.
  • Optional: You can substitute chocolate chips with mini chunks or chopped nuts for added texture.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • This recipe does not require baking or cooking, making it a quick and easy dessert option.
