It is snowing in Vancouver. Thick, beautiful, soft, quiet snow. And I looooved the snow when we were there so I’m in full on jealous mode.
Our beautiful Vancouver home.
Paging through a recipe book made by one of the communities on campus at Regent I was reminded of this most delicious sugary treat – Snowballs. Perfect for a hot summery Christmas in Cape Town, right?
Ingredients:
- 1 Pkt digestive biscuits (400g)
- Bag marshmallows (cut in half, or half again for smaller snowballs)
- 100g Butter
- 1 Tin sweetened condensed milk (350g)
- Coconut to coat
Instructions:
Melt the butter, add the condensed milk and then the crushed digestive biscuits. With wet hands, pack the butter/condensed milk/biscuit mixture around the marshmallow halves (or quarters). Roll the balls through the coconut.
If I was HARDCORE green (like this blog was called ‘our VERY BRIGHT GREEN life’ then I would’ve milked the cow and churned the butter, shredded the coconut myself and made my own healthy homemade marshmallows. But now I have 3 kids, so go easy on me will you.?
And EAT. And Merry Christmas xxx
