1/4 cup butter, melted |
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar |
1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts |
1/2 cup dr pepper |
icing: |
2 cups confectioners' sugar |
2 tablespoons butter, melted |
1/3 cup dr. pepper soda |
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 package (10 ounces) flaked coconut, toasted |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first five ingredients. Roll into 3/4-in. balls. For icing, in a large bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar, butter, soda and vanilla; beat until smooth. Dip balls in icing; shake off excess. Roll in coconut. Place on waxed paper; let stand until set. Store in an airtight container. Yield: About 5 dozen.
