Notes

Allow these little bites to fully set before transferring them to an airtight container. Store them in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Instructions

1. In a small saucepan, combine coconut milk, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Heat over medium-low until warm and steaming, but not boiling. Turn off the heat and stir in white chocolate chips (or chopped white chocolate) until fully combined.

3. In a mixing bowl, add the processed shredded coconut and pour the white chocolate mixture over it. Stir well until everything is combined. Refrigerate the coconut mixture for about 1 hour to firm up.

4. Once the mixture is firm, remove it from the refrigerator and form small balls using your hands. Set them aside on parchment-lined countertop or plate.

5. In a small bowl, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil. You can use the "warm" setting on your air fryer toaster oven (if you have one) or a microwave, heating in short intervals and stirring in between until smooth.
6. In a separate pan or toaster oven, lightly toast the coconut flakes until golden brown. Set aside.
