Step 1: Mix Wet Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly combine the melted butter, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. This forms the sticky base of your Moose Farts.

Step 2: Add Dry Ingredients

Gradually stir in the graham cracker crumbs, dried coconut, and chocolate chips. Mix until everything is well incorporated and the mixture holds together easily, which ensures that your cookie balls will maintain their shape.

Step 3: Chill

Refrigerate the mixture for about an hour. Chilling makes the dough easier to handle and helps prevent stickiness when forming the balls.

Step 4: Form Cookie Balls

Using a spoon or cookie scoop, shape the chilled mixture into 1 1/4-inch balls. Keeping them on the smaller side is advisable as these treats are quite rich.

Step 5: Coat with Crumbs

Roll each ball in additional graham cracker crumbs. This not only adds an extra layer of texture but also makes them less sticky to the touch.

Step 6: Final Chill

Arrange the coated balls on a baking sheet and place them back in the refrigerator until they are firm, which usually takes another hour.

Variation

Consider adding finely chopped nuts such as pecans or walnuts for an added crunch and nutty flavor. You can also experiment with different types of crushed cookies or flavored chips to customize the taste.
