Ingredients

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ cup sweetened condensed milk
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional for added sweetness)
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Additional shredded coconut for rolling (optional)

Optional Add-Ins:

  • ½ cup mini chocolate chips for extra chocolatey bites
  • 1 tablespoon rum or whiskey for an adult twist
  • ½ cup chopped nuts (like walnuts or pecans) for texture

For Serving:

  • Serve chilled as bite-sized treats
  • Pair with a cold glass of milk or a cup of coffee

Instructions

Step 1: Mix the Dry Ingredients

  1. In a large bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, shredded coconut, cocoa powder, and salt. Stir until everything is well mixed.

Step 2: Add the Wet Ingredients

  1. Add the sweetened condensed milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and maple syrup (if using) to the dry ingredients.
  2. Stir everything together until a thick, sticky mixture forms. If the mixture feels too dry, you can add a little more sweetened condensed milk, a tablespoon at a time, until you reach the right consistency.

Step 3: Roll the Balls

  1. Using your hands, scoop out 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
  2. If desired, roll the balls in additional shredded coconut to coat them.

Step 4: Chill the Moose Farts

  1. Place the rolled balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. Chill the Moose Farts in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

  1. Once chilled, serve the Moose Farts straight from the fridge or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Cooking Notes

  • Consistency: If the mixture is too sticky to roll, you can chill it in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes before forming the balls.
  • Coconut: For a toasted coconut flavor, you can lightly toast the coconut in a skillet before mixing it into the dough.
