These No-Bake 3 Ingredient Bounty Balls are ready in no time at all… and taste just like a real Bounty bar! Made from condensed milk, coconut and chocolate – they really should come with an addictive warning!
Do you know someone who loves Bounty bars? Or maybe it’s you that’s a fan of the delicious coconut-chocolate flavour combination. Well my friends, I am totally with you. I love, LOVE Bounty’s. They really are the best… and I’m pretty sure whoever created them should be given some kind of award. Yep, they’re that good.
Anyway, I had seen these super easy Bounty Balls on Pinterest about a zillion times and finally decided that I needed to make myself a batch. And boy oh boy, was that a good call!
All you need to make these fabulous little bites, is some desiccated coconut, a tin of condensed milk and chocolate melts to cover them. Because everything tastes better when it’s covered in chocolate, right!?
Then it’s simply a matter of mixing the coconut and condensed milk together, rolling the mixture into balls, popping them on a tray and into the freezer to harden, and then coating with the melted chocolate. Umm… easy-peasy!
These make pretty fab little foodie gifts, but just make sure you keep one (ahem ten) for yourself.

Sure is!
Hi there! Made these bars yesterday and they absolutely delicious. Ran into some problems though. Used 397 gr of condensed milk and 150 gr of coconut and the mixture was firm enough so i placed that in the fridge and before dippong in chocolatein the freezer for 15 min. Covered in chocolate but after i put them i the fridge i noticed the milk started leaking. On top if that i tried naking these lovely lines with royal icing because i had it on hand and it all melted. Not a pretty sight. Any ideas as to what went wrong? Needless to say apart from the aesthetics issue they were quickly gone-my kids loved them
Hi, I think that this is a cool recipe but what if I don’t have condensed milk?
Hi Anne, it really needs sweetened condensed milk sorry!
