Munchkins!!!

Last night we made munchkins!!! I remember the last time I made this was Christmas time at home, during college, that was around 2002 (ooh, that's almost a decade now, that makes me so young when I last made this but well,at 27, I think I'm still young :-p ).

I planned to give our good neighbors some holiday treat so I decided munchkins would be a great idea.

The other night, Lady M helped me in crushing the biscuits. I took some pictures of her, for Hubby to see what a handy helper she is, but I can't get a decent one since she keeps on pounding the biscuits so fast and my phone's camera can't keep up with her.

By the time I opened the marshmallows though, she can't stop asking for one, and then another one, and then another one. For a while I thought she'll eat them all and I'll end up going back to the grocery (poor thing, I have to send her out to play with our house help *(T_T)* ). Anyway, when I was almost done I realized the marshmallows were more than enough so I gave her a couple more. \*(^_^)*/

In the end I realized making munchkins alone when every now and then you're having contractions (braxton hicks that is) is a bit challenging. I end up so tired that I have to sleep, and then woke up and its already December 31st. 

A blessed 2012 everyone! *(^_^)*

 

Munchkin Recipe

Ingredients:
15pcs grahams
15pcs chocolate grahams, or any favorite chocolate cookies of yours
168ml condensed milk
1 (60grms) medium bite size marshmallows

1 cup dessicated coconut

Procedure:

1. Crush the grahams, use a food processor if you have one.

2. Add condensed milk, then mix well. 

(it would be better to use your hands here, so make sure you washed your hands, and brushed your nails properly or just trim them off :-p )

3. Take a tablespoon of the mixture then roll it into a ball.

4. Flatten the ball, using the palm of your hands, then put a marshmallow in the middle of the flattened dough and roll it again into a ball.
5. Coat the ball with dessicated coconut.

(to keep its shape, you can place half of the dessicated coconut in a rounded-base plastic container. Let the ball roll around by wiggling the container)
6. Chill for at least 10 minutes before serving.
