Preparation

What You Need

8 oz (250 g) Canadian Cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup (60 ml) powdered sugar
1 tsp (5 ml) pure vanilla extract
About 18 cake, brownie or
soft-cookie cubes, ¾˝ (2 cm)
1 1/4 cup (310 ml) sweetened, grated coconut

Instructions

In a bowl, use a spoon to mix Cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla extract. 2. Mix well, until a smooth, consistent frosting is obtained.

Generously coat cake (or brownie or soft-cookie) cubes with glazing and shape them into small balls.

Roll the balls in the grated coconut to completely cover them, then fine-tune their shape by rolling them between your hands.

Spread excess coconut onto the bottom of a large, flat pan and distribute the balls.

Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.

    Brown sugar goes well with the coconut, but not too much. Also, just my opinion, but I don't like to use too much icing, even though it says to be generous.
