Divide the chocolate mixture into two parts. One will be coated with cocoa and the other with desiccated coconut. Take about 1 table spoon quantity and make balls with palms about 3 cm in diameter for each. Roll half of the truffles in cocoa and the other half in desiccated coconut. Don’t go after perfect round shape, handle with fast movements as chocolate melts quickly in palms. Store in refrigerator but make sure to take truffles out 5 minutes before serving to enjoy the true melting chocolate taste. |
