Cherry Truffles Topped with Shredded Coconut

Hi everyone. I'm sorry this is so late, but it's better late than never. This is the yummy Valentine's day post that I was going but I got sick and didn't have a chance to post it until now. These truffles have a great cherry flavor with a little bit of coconut. I hope you enjoy it.


Ingrediants:

Half a bag of red color white chocoate candy discs

cherry candy flavoring oil

powdered sugar

milk

shredded coconut



Instructions:


1. Melt candy discs in a microwaveable bowl in 30 second intervals until smooth. Stirring after each addition.

2. Fill truffle molds and lightly tap on counter top to get all the air bubbles out. Refigerate for 30 minutes or until set.

3. Tap the mold onto a cookie sheet lined with wax paper until all the truffles are out of the mold.

4. Mix milk and powdered sugar in a small bowl to make icing. You will want it kind of thick because this will be the glue for the shredded coconut.

5. Top each truffle with the icing and then a little of the shredded coconut and let it set until dry. Keep in an air tight container. Should make about 28 truffles.
