Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup shredded coconut unsweetened, about 80 g
  • 1/2 cup condensed milk about 150 g
  • 75 g dark or milk chocolate
  • white chocolate melted, for drizzling, optional

Method
 

  1. In a bowl, mix the shredded coconut and condensed milk well with a spatula. You don't need a food processor. You can also mix with clean hands.
  2. Take a little of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Make balls from all the mixture, then roll each one again to make it smoother.
  3. Refrigerate the balls for about 30 minutes to firm up.
  4. Melt the dark or milk chocolate in a double boiler or the microwave until smooth and runny.
  5. Dip each ball completely in the chocolate using a wooden skewer, fork or spoon. Shake off the extra chocolate and place it on a wire rack or a tray lined with parchment paper. If you used a skewer, fill the little hole with a dab of chocolate.
  6. Refrigerate for 10–15 minutes until the chocolate sets.
  7. Drizzle melted white chocolate over the top, or sprinkle with some coconut instead.

Notes

Makes 14–16 balls, depending on the size you roll them.
Use white chocolate for dipping instead of dark or milk chocolate, if you like.
For a neater drizzle, put the melted white chocolate in a small piping bag.
Store in an airtight box in the fridge.
