Bring the butter to room temperature.

Roast the shredded coconut carefully until they turn a little brown. This will create a delicious flavor, but you can skip this if you want. Let cool.

Mix together butter, half of the shredded coconut and spices in a bowl.

Form into walnut-sized balls with two teaspoons. Roll in the rest of the shredded coconut.

Store in refrigerator or freezer.
