Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Crushed pineapple (drained)
- 1.5 cups Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 cup White chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Sprinkles or coconut flakes (optional, for coating)
Instructions
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the crushed pineapple, powdered sugar, and butter.
Cook the mixture for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly and the liquid is mostly evaporated.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Add 1 cup of the shredded coconut to the pineapple mixture and mix until well combined. Let the mixture cool to room temperature.
Once cool, take small portions of the mixture (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll them into small balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 20-second intervals and stirring between each until smooth.
Using a fork or skewer, dip each pineapple ball into the melted white chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Place the coated balls back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Optional: Roll the balls in sprinkles or extra shredded coconut before the chocolate sets for added texture and decoration.
Refrigerate the White Chocolate Pineapple Balls for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set fully.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
