I made these for a cookie giveaway and they were a hit, even with the ppl that don't care for coconut. It did need 1/4c extra crumbs to make them stiff enough to roll.

I love this recipe, because it is so easy to make. Everyone else loves these because no one has even seen a sugar plum. I hate coconut, so I just replace the coconut with extra graham cracker crumbs. Also, you can buy graham cracker crumbs or I just put the graham crackers in sandwich bags and let the kids beat them. I think this is the kids favorite part of making theses.

LOVE THESE! I made my second batch today:-) The ingredient list is an odd combination, but it comes together nicely. The mixture really does look like raw meat, but they are absolutely adorable once you roll the balls and put the clove in. I thought about not using the clove, but it makes a huge difference in appearance. Mine are much smoother than the photo here. I used the pre-made crumbs in the box. I don't know if that helps, but they look really smooth. I was worried they would be squishy, but the jello sets up after a little while and they are plenty firm. Planning on making these every year!

I think that these are good but definitely an acquired taste. Other reviews mentioned that more graham cracker was required so I added half a cup more based on their reviews. I found that it was perfect and rolled easily. Will make again but next time will try some different touches.

These cookies were fun to make, although abit sticky. I had to add more graham cracker to make it easier to form the balls. I took them to a Cookie Exchange and they were a big hit, especially when no one had ever seen one before. They are especially great for those who love coconut. I'm taking them to a Party tomorrow, and again next weekend.

I took these to one of my wife's concerts last year. People looked at them, were a tad skeptical, but then tasted. Soon they were calling others to try them. They were gone in no time. In fact, on a tableful of goodies, they were the first one's gone. This year I'll make more.

They were ok. Easy to make but difficult to work with. They were easier to roll if you put the "dough" in the fridge for a while.

I liked the idea of this recipe,but they are SOOOO sticky! my 4 yr old didn't even want to make more then 2 because they where sooo sticky. I ended up using a melon baller and cooking spray so they wouldn't stick. I'm not sure if I did something wrong or not. But they are good, a little too sweet though. maybe they would better with a different flavor. we might try these again when my daughter is a little older.
