Ingredients
- 4 cups shredded sweetened coconut
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 4 teaspoons coconut oil melted
- 16 ounces dark chocolate melting wafers
Instructions
- Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
- In a large bowl, stir together the coconut and powdered sugar.
- Next add the sweetened condensed milk and 2 teaspoons melted coconut oil. Stir to combine.
- Scoop 1 tablespoon sized portions and gently roll them into smooth balls. Place the coconut balls on the prepared baking sheet and then freeze for 30 minutes.
- Add the dark chocolate chips and remaining 2 teaspoons coconut oil to a microwave-safe bowl. Heat for 30 seconds and then stir. Continue heating and stirring in 30 second intervals until the chocolate is completely melted.
- Working one at a time, dip each coconut truffle into the melted chocolate and allow any excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.
- Return the truffle to the parchment lined baking sheet and continue dipping the remaining truffles.
- Place the truffles into the fridge and allow them to chill until the chocolate has set–about 15 minutes. Enjoy.
Notes
- Storage: Store any leftover truffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days.
- You can use 8 ounces dark chocolate chips, 8 ounces chocolate bark or chocolate melting wafers, and 2 teaspoons melted coconut oil in place of the 16 ounces chocolate melting wafers.
