Tsoureki Balls
- 6 cups sweet bread crumbs (use any leftover tsourekia)
- 1 cup coconut (plus extra coconut for rolling the balls in)
- 1 cup ground almonds (I buy flaked and grind them)
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- To get the tsoureki crumbs, slice any dry tsoureki loaf you may have or any leftover pieces, chop and then grind it in a small chopper until you have 6 cups which you place in a large bowl.
- Add the almonds and coconut and mix well.
- Add the condensed milk and mix carefully, you should have a moist mixture which easily sticks together, if it is too wet add more crumbs.
- Make small balls and roll in coconut.
- Variations: You can add some finely chopped glace fruits or fruit peel.
- Hazelnut meal can be used instead of almond meal.
- You can roll the balls in white sprinkles or dip them in white chocolate instead of the coconut.
