Ingredients
  

  • 398 mL of canned crushed pineapple drained meticulously.
  • 8 ounces of cream cheese brought to room temperature.
  • 2 cups of unsweetened fine desiccated coconut.
  • 1/2 cup of graham crumbs.
  • 3 ounces of pineapple jello powder.

Instructions

  • In a sizable mixing bowl, place the cream cheese, ensuring it's at room temperature. Utilizing an electric mixer, proceed to beat the cream cheese until its consistency is smooth, ensuring no lumps remain.
  • Incorporate the drained crushed pineapple, one cup of the desiccated coconut, graham crumbs, and the pineapple jello powder into the bowl. Note: There's no necessity to prepare the jello; use the powder directly.
  • Combine all ingredients diligently until a homogeneous mixture is achieved.
  • Transfer the bowl to a refrigerator and allow it to set for a duration of one hour.
  • Upon removal from the refrigerator, extract the mixture in tablespoon portions. Shape each portion into a spherical configuration and subsequently roll each sphere in the remaining desiccated coconut.
  • Arrange the completed Pineapple Christmas Balls in a suitable food-safe container and store them in a refrigerated environment until they are to be served.
