Coconut Irish Cream Truffles
 
 
Ingredients
  • 1 12-ounce bag white chocolate chips
  • 1½ ounces heavy cream
  • 1½ ounces Bailey's Irish Cream
  • 1 12-ounce bag milk chocolate chips
  • 1 14-0unce bag sweetened shredded coconut
Method
  1. Using a double-boiler, melt your white chocolate chips. You can use the microwave, but be careful not to overheat your chocolate or it will seize.
  2. As soon as the chocolate is melted, remove it from the heat and whisk in the cream and the Bailey’s. Pour into an 8-inch glass baking dish, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  3. To assemble, scoop by heaping teaspoonfuls, roll them into balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Place the tray into the refrigerator to firm up at least another half hour to an hour.
  4. To make your coating, melt the milk chocolate using the same format as above. Whisk until it is smooth and creamy.
  5. Spread the coconut onto a baking sheet.
  6. Using a fork, dip the truffles into the chocolate and then drop them into the coconut. Sprinkle a little coconut on the top and lightly roll from one side of the pan to the other. Let it sit for a minute while you do a few more.
  7. Remove the balls that have been sitting in coconut to a wire rack, until the milk chocolate coating begins to harden.
  8. Gently remove the truffles from the rack into small paper cups and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature before serving.
