Ingredients
- 398 mL canned crushed pineapple, very well drained
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups unsweetened fine desiccated coconut
- 1/2 cup graham crumbs
- 3 ounce packet pineapple jello
Instructions
- Add the room temperature cream cheese to a large bowl. I like to use a mixer to beat the cream cheese. This will help to loosen it up and avoid any lumps of cream cheese in the finished product.
- Next, add in the pineapple, one cup of the coconut, the graham crumbs, and the packet of pineapple jello. Just toss the powder into the bowl with the other ingredients. You do not need to prepare the jello first.
- Mix the ingredients well until thoroughly combined.
- Place bowl in fridge for one hour.
- Once ready, portion mixture into tablespoons and roll into balls. Roll ball into remaining coconut.
- Place finished Pineapple Christmas Balls into a food-safe container. Keep refrigerated.
