  6. While making the form, make a hole in the middle, put a hazelnut or almond, then form a ball between your palms.

  7. Roll each ball in coconut and line them up. Serve this lovely dessert cold.

Buon appetito!


NOTE:

  • Soak the almonds in hot water, leave for 10 minutes. After that, throw away the hot water and pour it over with cold water. Leave it for a minute. This will clean the almonds faster. Dry them with a clean cloth and strain for about 5 minutes.

  • Toast the hazelnuts in the oven at 180 C for about 10 minutes. Take it out hot and put it in a clean cloth and rub it, this way the peeling of this nut will go faster!

  • You can store these balls in the box for up to 5–6 days, or in the refrigerator.
