Notes

RECIPE TIPS

Make sure you use unsweetened desiccated coconut rather than shredded coconut or coconut flakes.
If mixture is too soft to form balls, add a little extra coconut or place in the fridge for 15 minutes before attempting to roll again.
Use a spatula to gently lift the biscuits from the tray if necessary.
