Tips & notes
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 2 months. They firm up considerably when cold, so let them sit for a couple of minutes before eating.
- Pressing the bites firmly is key — loosely packed mixture will crumble. If your mixture feels too dry to hold, add an extra teaspoon of heavy cream.
- Swap the vanilla for 1/2 teaspoon almond extract, or add 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder to the base for chocolate coconut bites.
