If you need a fast, delicious dessert that everybody would love, these easy coconut nibblers fit the bill. I got the recipe from Patricia, the Ageless Sage, a member of the Monroeville Writers Group that I belong to. It is a flexible recipe using coconut butter as the base to which you add anything you love in a dessert. Nuts, raisins, chocolate chips etc. I tested this on some conservative and hard to please ladies during a meeting and they gave the nibblers the thumbs up. Nothing beats the taste of the coconut butter that is enhanced by the chosen added goodies. Here is the basic framework of the recipe.
Easy Coconut Nibblers
- coconut butter (I used about 1/4 cup in the batch I prepared) (Note 1)
- raisins
- chopped walnuts
- chocolate chips
Melt the coconut butter in a glass bowl in the microwave. Immediately add the goodies you chose to the melted coconut butter and mix. Shape into balls. Enjoy.
Notes:
Coconut butter is NOT the same as coconut oil. Here is a good online source that explains the difference between the two. I bought a bottle of coconut butter from of all places, Marshall's in their food department. Most grocery stores carry coconut butter. Just be careful you do not pick up coconut oil instead.
