Strawberry Coconut Balls
Strawberry Coconut Balls are a simple dessert made without baking. They mix sweet strawberries with coconut. You only need strawberries, coconut, and something sweet like honey or condensed milk. These balls are sweet and a little sour, with a soft and chewy texture. Some people also add cardamom powder or walnuts for more flavor and texture. They're a healthy snack that both kids and adults will enjoy.
