Ingredients
  

For the Truffles
  • 2 ⅓ cups shredded coconut Use fresh, unsweetened for best flavor.
  • 8 ounces sweetened condensed milk Serves as the binding agent.
  • 8 ounces dark chocolate Chopped, for coating.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, pour in 2 ⅓ cups of shredded coconut alongside 8 ounces of sweetened condensed milk. Stir thoroughly until every strand of coconut is beautifully coated.
  2. Using your hands, take small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place each truffle onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl, add 8 ounces of chopped dark chocolate. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until the chocolate is smooth and melted.
  4. Remove the coconut balls from the refrigerator. Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate and let excess chocolate drip off. Place back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  5. Once all the truffles are coated, return them to the fridge for another 30 minutes to let the chocolate set.
  6. After the chocolate has set, serve the truffles on a decorative plate or in a container. Enjoy them chilled.
