Keto Coconut Almond Bliss Balls
These keto coconut almond bliss balls are a no-bake, sugar-free treat inspired by Raffaello candies. Made with mascarpone, coconut oil, shredded coconut, almond meal, and a touch of vanilla, they’re creamy, rich, and perfectly satisfying. With optional blanched almonds at the center for crunch, these truffles double as fat bombs, making them ideal for keto, low-carb, and gluten-free lifestyles. Store them in the fridge or freezer for an easy make-ahead snack or dessert.
Ingredients
- 200 g mascarpone cheese
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 80 g unsweetened shredded coconut plus extra for coating
- 2 tbsp erythritol
- 1 tbsp almond meal
- 100 g coconut butter (paste)
- few drops vanilla extract
- 20 pieces blanched almonds optional, for filling
Instructions
Preparation
- In a small saucepan, gently warm the coconut oil and coconut butter together until melted and smooth.
- Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl. Add mascarpone, almond meal, erythritol, vanilla extract, and shredded coconut. Stir until a thick paste forms.
- Scoop small portions of the mixture, place a blanched almond in the center if using, and roll into balls.
- Roll each ball in additional shredded coconut until evenly coated.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. Store in the fridge or freezer.
Notes
- If the mixture feels too soft, add more shredded coconut until it firms up enough to shape.
- Chilling is essential for the right texture—don’t skip this step.
- For a chocolate variation, drizzle with melted sugar-free dark chocolate before chilling.
