These no-bake bites combine chocolate hazelnut spread, shredded coconut, and toasted hazelnuts into a dense, chewy treat that chills firm in under an hour. They come together with minimal equipment, making them a practical option for lunchboxes, party trays, or a quick sweet fix. Rolling the mixture while slightly warm helps the bites hold their shape.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup chocolate hazelnut spread
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded coconut, unsweetened
  • 1 cup hazelnuts, toasted and roughly chopped
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 ounces semisweet chocolate, melted, for coating
  • 1/4 cup shredded coconut, toasted, for garnish

Method

  1. Toast the hazelnuts in a dry 9-inch skillet over medium heat, stirring often, until fragrant and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly, then chop roughly.

  2. Toast the 1/4 cup coconut for garnish in the same skillet over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until golden, about 2 minutes. Set aside.

  3. In a large bowl, stir together the chocolate hazelnut spread, 1 1/2 cups shredded coconut, chopped hazelnuts, graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until a thick, cohesive dough forms.

  4. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator until firm enough to shape, about 20 minutes.

  5. Scoop the mixture into 24 portions of about 1 tablespoon each and roll between your palms into smooth balls. Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

  6. Drizzle or dip the top of each ball into the melted semisweet chocolate, then sprinkle immediately with the toasted coconut garnish.

  7. Refrigerate the bites until the chocolate coating sets firm, at least 30 minutes, before serving.
