Ingredients
- 1 ⅓ cups dry shredded coconut finely ground, unsweetened
- 1 egg white
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- ½ tick unsalted butter softened at room temperature
- 1 Tablespoon dark rum such as Kirkland spiced rum from Costco or Austrian Stroh 54
- 3 Tablespoons dark cocoa powder unsweetened
- ⅓ cup shredded coconut finely ground; for coating
Instructions
- Place 1 ⅓ cups dry shredded coconut, 1 egg white, 3 Tablespoons dark cocoa powder, ½ stick unsalted butter cut into pieces, 1 Tablespoon dark rum, and 1 cup powdered sugar in a bowl.
- Work the mixture into a dough and place it in the fridge for an hour to set.
- Scoop out equal-sized pieces of the dough, roll each one into a small ball between your palms, and coat it in ⅓ cup shredded coconut.
- Place the coconut balls in paper candy cups.
Notes
- STORAGE:
- The basic recipe makes about 25 balls (if they are around 1 inch in diameter).
- The coconut balls in this recipe are perfectly sweet. If the dough is too runny, add more shredded coconut instead of sugar.
- The coconut balls are moist and quite soft. Once made, refrigerate them to firm up.
- STORAGE: Place the coconut balls in a resealable container and store them in a cool, dry place. The top of the fridge is ideal; they will last for about five days.
