Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with wax paper.

  4. Refrigerate for at least one hour until firm.
  5. Melt CandyQuik according to package directions.
  6. Dip the coconut balls into the chocolate and place on wax paper. {I used two spoons to maneuver the dipping to still make the truffles look decent.}

  8. Melt the white chocolate CandyQuik according to package directions.
  9. Place in a small baggie and cut a small hole in one corner.
