Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 120 grams Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 180 grams Sweetened shredded coconut
- 60 grams All-purpose flour
- 60 grams Powdered sugar (for coating)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter until smooth and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed.
Step 2
Add the powdered sugar (120 grams) and vanilla extract to the creamed butter. Beat well until the mixture is light and creamy.
Step 3
Gradually add the shredded coconut and all-purpose flour to the mixture. Stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until everything is well combined and forms a thick dough.
Step 4
Using clean hands, take about 1 tablespoon of dough and roll it into a smooth ball. Repeat until all the dough is shaped into balls. You should have approximately 20 balls.
Step 5
Place the powdered sugar (60 grams) for coating in a shallow bowl. Roll each ball in the powdered sugar until fully coated.
Step 6
Arrange the finished Coconut Butterballs on a serving plate. For best results, refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to allow them to firm up slightly before serving.
Step 7
Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
