Place the cashew nuts in a food processor and pulse until you get fine crumbs - about 30 seconds (don't over-pulse or they'll start to get oily).
Add the oats, half of the white chocolate chips, vanilla extract, dried apricots, and salt. Pulse again until the mixture combines and just starts to clump together.
Add the remaining chocolate chips and the chia seeds and mix with a spoon.
Place the shredded coconut on a plate.
Scoop out a heaped teaspoon of the apricot mixture, then squash and roll into a ball in your hands. Roll in the coconut and place on a plate or tray. Repeat until all of the mixture is used.
