6 Ingredients

– 180g white chocolate, chopped

– 80ml (1/3 cup) thickened cream

– 1 tsp vanilla bean paste (optional)

– 40g (1/4 cup) dried cranberries, chopped

– 40g (1/4 cup) pistachios, chopped

– 35g (1/3 cup) desiccated coconut

3 Method / Steps

Step 1

Place the chocolate and cream in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (make sure the bowl doesn’t touch the water). Use a metal spoon to stir until melted and the mixture is smooth. Stir in vanilla, if using. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 2

Stir in the cranberries and pistachios. Refrigerate for about 3 hours, stirring occasionally, or until firm enough to roll into balls (the mixture will still be a bit sticky).

Step 3

Place coconut in a shallow dish. Roll level tablespoons of mixture into balls and roll in coconut. Arrange in a single layer in an airtight container and keep in the fridge until ready to serve.
