Method
Preparation
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut and sweetened condensed milk. Stir until well combined.
- Take small amounts of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking tray.
- Refrigerate the coconut balls for about 10-15 minutes to firm up.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using). Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until melted and smooth.
- Dip each coconut ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully covered. Use a fork to lift them out and tap off excess chocolate.
- Return the coated bonbons to the baking tray. Let them sit at room temperature until the chocolate hardens, or refrigerate to speed up the process.
- Serve the bonbons at room temperature for the best flavor.
Notes
These bonbons can be customized with different toppings or flavors, such as crushed nuts or vanilla extract. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week, or freeze for longer storage.
