Ingredients

• 100 grams unsweetened shredded coconut
• 200 ml coconut cream
• 50 grams powdered erythritol
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 20 grams unsweetened cocoa powder (for dusting, optional)
• 15 grams butter (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut cream and powdered erythritol. Stir until the erythritol is fully dissolved.

Step 2

Place the saucepan over medium heat and add the optional butter for enhanced creaminess if desired. Stir continuously to avoid the mixture from sticking to the pan.

Step 3

Once the mixture starts to heat up, add the unsweetened shredded coconut. Stir frequently until the mixture thickens and looks like a cohesive dough. This should take approximately 8-10 minutes.

Step 4

Remove the pan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, ensuring it’s evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

Step 5

Let the mixture cool slightly until it's comfortable to handle but still warm enough to be pliable.

Step 6

Using your hands, scoop small amounts of the mixture and roll into balls about the size of a cherry.

Step 7

For extra flair and flavor, you can roll each truffle in unsweetened cocoa powder or additional shredded coconut.

Step 8

Place the rolled Keto Beijinhos on a tray lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. This helps them firm up and enhances their flavor.

Step 9

Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
