• ... and just 4 basic ingredients!

The Ingredients

• dried apricots - these can be bought in the dried fruit section of any supermarket or grocer.
• sweetened condensed milk - I recommend using full fat sweetened condensed milk for this recipe as it tends to set firmer than the skim version.
• white chocolate - you can use either white chocolate chips/bits or a block of white chocolate broken into pieces. Chop in a food processor, blender or Thermomix (or chop with a knife) until very finely chopped.
• desiccated coconut - this is a type of fine coconut that is perfect for coating the apricot balls.
