No Bake Strawberry Coconut Truffles
Description
No Bake Strawberry Coconut Truffles are made by mixing mascarpone cheese with coconut sugar, coconut flour, and optional strawberry powder for flavor and color. Fresh diced strawberries are folded in to add fresh fruit texture and brightness to the creamy base. The mixture is shaped into small balls and rolled in shredded coconut, which gives a crisp contrast to the soft interior once chilled. The truffles require refrigeration for at least an hour to set firmly before serving.
The flavor profile balances the creamy tang of mascarpone with the mild sweetness and nutty notes of the coconut ingredients. The fresh strawberries complement the base with a fresh, juicy element. The truffles are bite-sized and offer a smooth but textured mouthfeel due to the mix of soft mascarpone and grated coconut surface.
This recipe is suited for those looking for a no-bake treat that combines fresh fruit with coconut and creamy cheese. They are convenient for quick preparation and chilling without oven use, making them a simple dessert or snack option for casual gatherings or light indulgences.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup mascarpone cheese at room temperature
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar or granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup coconut flour
- 2 tablespoons strawberry powder from freeze-dried strawberries - optional
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup strawberry diced
- 1/2 cup coconut shredded
Instructions
- Add the mascarpone, coconut sugar, coconut flour, strawberry powder, and vanilla in a bowl. Mix until the sugar is dissolved.
- Add the diced strawberries and mix until combined.
- Now comes the fun part: Use a one- or two-ton cookie scoop to scoop the mixture and, using your hands, shape it into small, bite-sized balls.
- Add shredded coconut to a shallow bowl and toss each ball to coat it thoroughly.
- Transfer the balls to a cutting board or cookie sheet covered with parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving.
