No Bake Vanilla Orange Balls

My 5 yr old son and I made these up in less than 1/2 hr the other day! We used 1/2 c margarine and 2/3 c orange juice (which is equal to 6 oz), skipped the nuts and rolled them in coconut. Everyone who has tried them thinks they are awesome! I must say they are quite sweet, but I think if I were going to try to "tweek" this recipe I would simply add more cookies and less sugar, rather than introducing flour. Just my own personal thoughts on the subject. Thanks for a wonderful addition to any cookie plate! PS We found that letting these babies sit for a couple of hours was enough to make the everything meld nicely and overnight was not necessary.

These were yummy! I use to make these when I was a teenager. I couldn't find a 6 ounce can of frozen juice, so I bought a 12 ounce can. I accidently put the whole can in, so I had to buy more vanilla wafters. I forgot to add more nuts. But they turned out great. They were a great change from chocolate.

These cookies have a great taste, but they were a bit too sweet for me. I am wondering if substituting flour for about 1/3 of the sugar would work, to cut down on the sweetness...gonna try. But, my dad (who LOVES sweets) gobbled them up!

What a blast of orange flavor, excellent! My girls and I just finished making these, very easy. I used the larger end of a melon baller to make our tiny bite size cookies. Sorry Lennie, our cookie count was 157.
