2. Mix the Dough

  • In a bowl, combine toasted coconut, coconut cream, honey, vanilla, and salt.

  • Mix until it forms a sticky, dough-like consistency.

3. Roll & Coat

  • Scoop 1-tbsp portions and roll into balls.

  • Roll each ball in remaining shredded coconut (toasted or raw).

4. Chill & Devour!

  • Refrigerate for 1 hour to firm up (if you can wait that long!).

  • Optional upgrade: Drizzle with melted dark chocolate or roll in crushed nuts.
