Notes
1 serving is 1 ball. Best when chilled for 30 minutes or more, but can be eaten immediately. ** Chilling time not included in 30 minute recipesDesiccated coconut is shredded coconut that has been processed in a food processor into fine, sand-like grains. If you only have shredded coconut, it can be blitzed in a food processor to create the finer, desiccated coconut. The desiccated coconut is great for rolling the energy balls in. The shredded coconut tends to be a bit too clumpy but will have the same flavor.
