Ingredients

• 1 (9 ounce) package arrowroot biscuits (such as Arnott's® Milk Arrowroot™)
• 1 (14 ounce) can reduced-sugar sweetened condensed milk (such as Nestle®)
• ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder (such as Hershey's®)
• ½ cup finely shredded unsweetened coconut
• 2 tablespoons rum (Optional)
• ¾ cup finely shredded unsweetened coconut

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place biscuits in a large resealable plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin until crumbs are mostly uniform in size. Transfer to a large bowl and add condensed milk, cocoa powder, 1/2 cup shredded coconut, and rum. Mix with a wooden spoon or your hands, until all ingredients are combined and mixture has formed a thick dough.

Step 2

Place 3/4 cup shredded coconut in a shallow bowl. Roll dough into tablespoon-sized balls, then roll in coconut to coat. Place on a tray and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
