Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Mixture
- 1 1/2 cups (255g) chocolate chips
- 1 can (300ml) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 1/2 cups (120g) dried coconut
- 1 1/2 cups (180g) graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup (57g) melted butter
- 1 teaspoon (5ml) vanilla extract
Coating
- 1/2 cup (60g) graham cracker crumbs for rolling
Instructions
- Gather Ingredients: Set up your workspace by gathering all the ingredients for a smooth and enjoyable process starting with the base ingredients.
- Prepare Chocolate Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Place this bowl over a pot of simmering water to create a double boiler. Stir gently until the chocolate melts and the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly to avoid softening the coconut excessively.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: Add dried coconut and graham cracker crumbs to the chocolate mixture, stirring until the mixture is thick and sticky and all ingredients are well combined.
- Add Wet Flavorings: Pour in the melted butter and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly to enhance flavor and bind the mixture together.
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
- Form and Coat Balls: Using clean hands, scoop out small amounts of the mixture and shape them into bite-sized balls. Roll each ball in additional graham cracker crumbs until fully coated, adding a crunchy texture.
- Chill: Place the coated balls on the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes until firm. Use this time to clean up and prepare for serving.
- Serve: Enjoy the moose farts chilled directly from the refrigerator for the best chewy and flavorful experience.
Notes
- Ensure the chocolate mixture is not too hot before adding coconut to maintain the texture of the dried coconut.
- Refrigeration is essential to firm up the moose farts and improve their flavor and texture.
- This recipe is a no-bake treat, making it quick and convenient to prepare.
- Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and facilitate easy cleanup.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week for optimal freshness.
