DIRECTIONS

Mix the condensed milk and dried coconut flakes together. Check to see if you can make a ball with the mixture. If not, add some more coconut flakes. Mix again and set aside for 15 minutes to firm up.
With your hands, make balls and then insert a roasted almond (or walnut or hazelnut) into the center of the ball. Pat over where the nut was inserted.
Gently roll in a bowl of coconut to coat.
Place in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours. These are served cold.
