Ingredients

200g pkt dried pineapple pieces
1/3 cup desiccated coconut
1 tbs dark rum
180g pkt dark chocolate, chopped

Method

Step 1

Line a plate with baking paper.
Step 2

Process the pineapple in a food processor until very finely chopped. Transfer to a bowl. Stir in the coconut and rum until well combined.
Step 3

Roll 2 tsp of the pineapple mixture into a ball. Transfer to the lined plate.
Step 4

Place the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, making sure the base of the bowl doesn't touch the water. Stir until chocolate has melted. Remove the bowl from the pan.
Step 5

Working one at a time, use two forks to dip a ball into the melted chocolate. Allow excess chocolate to drain back into the bowl. Return to the lined plate. Repeat with the remaining balls. Place in the fridge for 2 hours or until the chocolate has set.
