Almond and coconut truffles

DSCN9948

I had found a little note with this recipe lost in the middle of my recipe book, and so I couldn't remember where exactly it was from! These little almond and coconut truffles are delicious anyway, and quite easy to make.

Ingredients:

160 gr. almonds peeled and crushed
90 gr. sugar
1 egg yolk
2 tsp. cream
100 gr. shredded
desiccated coconut

Mix all ingredients in a bowl until you get a dough which is firm. If you find it dry, add another tablespoon of cream. Pour some sugar onto a plate and with your hands mold small balls and then roll them in the sugar. Place them in paper liners and chill until ready to serve.
