These are not very sweet, but are a refreshing change of pace from the usual holiday baked goods, fudges, and candies. If you prefer a sweeter treat be sure to add sugar or sugar substitute to the mixture before rolling. I know there are many of us here at Zaar looking for good holiday treats that work with our eating plans. One snowball is 2 points. Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened |
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, well drained |
2 1/2 cups flaked coconut |
Directions:
1. When draining the pineapple, use a fine strainer to push as much juice out as possible. A reviewer has stated this makes the mixture a bit more firm and easier to work with.
2. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and pineapple.
3. Mix well.
4. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
5. Roll mixture into 1-inch balls.
6. Roll in coconut.
7. Refrigerate for 6 hours or overnight.
