Carrot Cheesecake Ball

1 (8 oz.) can crushed pineapple
1/4 cup dry coconut flakes (optional)
1/2 cup finely shredded carrots
1/2 cup raisins
12 ozs. cream cheese
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. ginger (powdered works best here)
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup graham cracker crumbs

Drain a small can of crushed pineapple, and soak up excess juice with paper towel. Set aside.

Mix your dry ingredients and toss in the carrots and raisins. Mix the pineapple, coconut, vanilla, and cream cheeses. Add dry ingredients, (you might prefer slightly more sugar than I do) form into a ball and roll in graham cracker crumbs.

Serve with graham cracker, carrot sticks, or whatever you think would go with this. Enjoy!
