Ingredients
- 2 cups shredded coconut unsweetened
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1/4 cup cream cheese softened
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar optional for extra sweetness
- 1/4 cup melted chocolate or chocolate chips optional for dipping
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Mix Coconut and Cream: In a medium bowl, combine shredded coconut, sweetened condensed milk, softened cream cheese, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
- Sweeten (Optional): Add powdered sugar to taste if you want extra sweetness. Continue mixing until fully incorporated.
- Form the Balls: Using your hands, roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. You can also use a spoon or cookie scoop for uniformity.
- Chill: Place the coconut balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes to an hour until firm.
- Chocolate Dipping (Optional): Once the balls are chilled, dip each one halfway in melted chocolate for a fun twist. Return them to the parchment paper to set.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once the coconut cream balls are firm and the chocolate has set, serve them as a sweet treat!
Notes
Nutritional values will vary depending on the ingredients used, especially if chocolate or powdered sugar is added.
