Makes 16-18 balls
Ingredients:
180g White chocolate
1/3 cup (80ml) Cream/coconut milk
2/3 cup (70g) Desiccated coconut
Pinch Salt
About 20 Almonds
Hot water

Directions:
1. Place white chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Add heavy cream and salt. Melt in the microwave in a 15-20 seconds pulses until completely melted.
2. Add desiccated coconut and mix until combined. Place in the fridge until set, about 1 hour.
3. Meanwhile prepare the almonds: Place the almonds in a small bowl, cover with hot water and allow to sit for about 20 minutes.
4. Peel the skim from each almond, then, toast them for about 4-5 minutes, until slightly golden.
5. Shape the balls: scoop out small portion of the white chocolate mixture, place the almond in the center and roll into a ball. If you prefer a version without the almond just roll a ball without putting the almond in the mixture.
6. Place desiccated coconut in a ball, roll each ball in the coconut, until completely coated.
7. Place in the fridge until ready to serve.
