Ingredients

• 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
• 2 cups Unsweetened shredded coconut
• 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
• 0.5 cups Softened unsalted butter
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 12 oz White chocolate chips
• 1 tbsp Coconut oil or vegetable shortening (for melting chocolate)
• 1.5 cups Sweetened shredded coconut (for coating)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, unsweetened shredded coconut, powdered sugar, softened butter, and vanilla extract.

Step 2

Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are fully incorporated and form a soft, sticky dough.

Step 3

Using a small cookie scoop or a spoon, scoop out small portions of the coconut mixture and roll them into 1-inch balls. Place the balls on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.

Step 4

Chill the coconut balls in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until firm.

Step 5

While the coconut balls are chilling, toast the sweetened shredded coconut for coating. Spread the coconut evenly on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown. Remove and let cool.

Step 6

Melt the white chocolate chips with the coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth and fully melted.

Step 7

Use a fork or dipping tool to coat each chilled coconut ball in the melted white chocolate. Allow the excess chocolate to drip off before placing the coated truffle back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 8

Immediately sprinkle or roll the coated truffles in the toasted coconut while the chocolate is still wet.

Step 9

Repeat with the remaining coconut balls until all are coated.

Step 10

Let the truffles set at room temperature for about 30 minutes or refrigerate for 15 minutes to harden the chocolate.

Step 11

Store the finished truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
