Hello, I would love to make these for my guests but I can't get a hold of molasses or condensed milk. Any other thing that I could use?
Thank you!

Wow! The sight of the these coconut truffles itself is so inviting and indulging that I can't just wait to taste them! :) I think, there will be no need for extra sugar as the coconut grates and also sweetened condensed milk will impart enough sweetness; however, I would love to spinkle these coconut truffles with a bit of confectioner's sugar.. and yumm it goes into ma tummy! Well, Catalin, are these truffles made fluffy and soft or are they a lil hard?

Nice, simple and easy.perfect:-)...Like the foodpsychologist says, in India they use molasses instead of condensed milk and also add a few roasted spices..
