Description

Sweet balls of dried fruit

Ingredients

  • 1⁄4 c dried dates
  • 1⁄4 c seedless raisins
  • 1 c dessicated coconut
  • 1 T sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

With plastic knives, let the children chop the fruit. Put the chopped fruit in a mixing bowl. Add just enough condensed milk to make it sticky so the fruit will hold together in balls. Place a teaspoon of mixture in palm of hand roll to create a ball. Dip in tray of coconut and refrigerate, uncovered, before eating.

Notes

Have the child/ren estimate how many balls the fruit in the bowl will make. Count the balls afterwards. How can you get more balls out of the same fruit?
