Bala Baiana aka Bala De Vidro 🇧🇷(or Coconut Bon Bons) 🥥

These taste SO good!!! And are so easy to make. I did accidentally overdo the caramel the tiniest bit so make sure yours doesn’t get as dark as mine! Also I tried and tried to pronounce this right but I’m still probably a little off 🥲 Inspired by @LARYSSA MEIRA | Décor & DIY ❤️

Step 1

Heat the condensed milk, coconut and butter over medium heat for about 10 minutes, until the mixture starts to hold together as you mix it

Step 2

Transfer to a bowl and let it cool in the fridge for 30 - 60 minutes then roll into small balls

Step 3

Bring a small saucepan to medium heat and add the sugar, water and lemon and bring to a simmer. When the sugar turns into a golden amber colour, turn the heat to low so the caramel doesn't burn, dip the balls into the caramel and let set for a couple of minutes. Be careful as the caramel is super hot! And also cools and solidifies very quickly.
