Ingredients

  • 1 7 oz bag sweetened flake coconut
  • 2 tsp Rum flavored extract
  • 1 12 oz pkg vanilla wafers, finely crushed
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 cup sifted powdered sugar

Directions

  1. Place the coconut in a shallow dish or pie plate; set aside momentarily.

  2. In a medium bowl, combine the vanilla wafer crumbs, powdered sugar, rum extract, ginger and enough of the limeade concentrate to make the mixture stick together; mix well.

  3. Form the mixture into 1/2 inch balls in the coconut to coat, pressing gently to adhere. Store in covered containers between layers of wax paper. Chill 1 day before serving.
