RECIPE:
Ingredients:
• Cream cheese — 200g (or sub with 5–9% fat dry curd cottage cheese / Quark)
• Nectarines (or peaches) — 1-2 pcs
• Honey — 2 tbsp
• Shredded coconut (for the mix) — 50g
• Shredded coconut (for rolling) — 20–30g
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Prep the fruit: Finely dice the nectarines and place them directly into a deep mixing bowl. No need to peel them—nectarine skin is smooth and tender. If they are too juicy, gently pat the diced fruit with a paper towel.
2. Build the base: Add cold cream cheese (or prepped cottage cheese), 2 tablespoons of honey, and 50g of shredded coconut right on top of the nectarines.
3. Mix it up: Gently fold all the ingredients together until well combined. The shredded coconut will instantly absorb the honey and nectarine juices, binding everything together.
4. Chill: Put the bowl in the fridge for 20 minutes (or the freezer for 10 minutes). This helps the mixture firm up, making it much easier to roll.
5. Shape the balls: Pour the remaining shredded coconut onto a shallow plate. Scoop the mixture with a spoon, quickly roll into balls with your hands, and coat generously in the coconut flakes.
*Serving tip: Arrange the finished balls on a platter and chill for another 15–30 minutes before serving. They will set perfectly, absorb the rich coconut aroma, and hold their shape beautifully.
