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.
