Coconut Truffles
- 1/4 cups Powdered Sugar
- 1 block Softened Cream Cheese, 8 Oz
- 2 cups Shredded Coconut
- 1 teaspoon Coconut Extract
- 1 pound White Almond Bark
- Sugar Crystals, For Sprinkling
- Thoroughly mix powdered sugar, cream cheese, coconut, and coconut extract. Refrigerate mixture at least one hour. Roll mixture into 3/4" balls. Freeze balls on a foil-lined cookie sheet or plastic airtight container overnight.
- The next day, place white almond bark in a medium glass bowl. Microwave for 90 seconds. Stir. Microwave in 25-second intervals until melted. Stir between intervals.
- Dip frozen balls in the melted almond bark. (I've found that using toothpicks helps keep control of the truffles while dipping.) Place on a foil-lined cookie sheet. Sprinkle with pretty sugar crystals. Let set until solid. Can be stored in an airtight container for a week (if there is any left by then).
