Homemade Raffaello

 Instructions:

1. Make the mixture:
   In a bowl, mix the desiccated coconut (reserve a bit for coating) with powdered milk (if using). Add the condensed milk and stir until you get a sticky, moldable dough.

2. Shape the balls:
   Take a small amount of the mixture in your hands. Flatten it, place an almond or hazelnut in the center, and roll into a ball.

3. Coat in coconut:
   Roll each ball in the reserved coconut to coat completely.

4. Chill:
   Place the finished Raffaello balls on a tray and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.

5. Serve:
   Serve cold. Store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
