Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for No-Bake Raspberry Coconut Balls
  1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of shredded coconut, 1/2 cup of thick coconut cream, 2 tablespoons of melted coconut oil, 1/4 cup of honey or maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Stir vigorously with a spatula until the mixture forms a thick, sticky dough that holds together when pressed, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Using a tablespoon measure, scoop out the mixture and flatten it in your palm. Place a fresh raspberry in the center and carefully wrap the mixture around it to form a ball, ensuring the raspberry is fully enclosed. Repeat this process until all the dough is used, creating about 12-15 No-Bake Raspberry Coconut Balls.
  3. On a plate, pour about 1/2 cup of extra shredded coconut. Roll each ball in the shredded coconut, making sure to coat them evenly for added texture and visual appeal.
  4. Arrange the coated coconut balls on a parchment-lined tray, spacing them out to prevent sticking. Place the tray in the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes.
