Ingredients
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
3 cups confectioners’ sugar
2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
2 cups chopped pecans
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons shortening
Directions
In a large mixing bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, confectioners’ sugar, shredded coconut, chopped pecans, and vanilla extract.
Mix the ingredients until well combined, forming a thick and sticky dough-like consistency.
Using your hands, shape the mixture into small balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Chill the candy balls in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to set.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt semi-sweet chocolate chips with shortening, stirring until smooth.
Dip each chilled candy ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is evenly coated.
Return the chocolate-coated candies to the baking sheet and let them set in the refrigerator until the chocolate hardens.
