A quick holiday treat: HOLIDAY CHAI SPICE LADOOS (SNOWBALLS)
/Years ago, my Holiday Chai Spice Ladoos (snowballs) recipe was featured in the article, “How to Create a Signature Party” in the Toronto Star.
This recipe is easy as it requires no baking, so it's a quick sweet treat to make! These will look beautiful on any Christmas cookie plate as they look like 'snowballs' thanks to the coconut.
