Beijinho - Brazilian Dessert

Directions

1. 1
   Combine the condensed milk and margarine in a small pot (non-stick, if possible), and turn the heat on low.
2. 2
   Simmer for 5~7 minutes while stirring with a spatula.
3. 3
   When it hardens a bit, turn off the heat so that it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot.
4. 4
   Transfer to a container greased with margarine (not listed).
5. 5
   When it cools enough to handle, coat your hands in a bit of margarine (amount separate from listed ingredients) and roll into small balls.
6. 6
   Coat in coconut flakes.
7. 7
   When coating with coconut, coat the dough balls with a bit of water to help the coconut stick.
8. 8
   If you over-simmer the mixture and it hardens, heat it up a bit in the microwave until it softens a little.
