In a medium-sized saucepan, gently melt the coconut oil over low heat, then add the erythritol and stir until dissolved.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the almond flour and unsweetened shredded coconut. Mix thoroughly to combine all the ingredients.
Add the vanilla extract and coconut cream to the mixture, stirring well to achieve a consistent batter.
Allow the mixture to cool for about 10 minutes until it firms up slightly, making it easier to handle.
Using your hands, take a small amount of the mixture and flatten it into a disc. Place one whole almond in the center and form the mixture into a ball around the almond.
Roll each formed ball in the desiccated coconut to coat the outside. Repeat with the remaining mixture and almonds to make approximately 18 balls.
Once all the balls are formed and coated, place them on a tray lined with parchment paper.
Refrigerate the Keto Rafaellos for at least 1 hour before serving to allow them to firm up.
