CHOCOLATE MINT TRUFFLES
These are so good. Just the right touch of mint. There's a 2 hour refrigeration period for the chocolate mixture to become firm enough to shape. Other than that, they're quick to make.

COCONUT CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES
I'm not very good at making cakes so whenever I needed to bring a plate of sweets to a morning or afternoon tea, I would make these. They are so easy to make. My daughter helps me rolled the coconut on the balls. Enjoy.

Steps:
- Crush the biscuits in a food processor until it is fine (like flour).
- Combine in a large bowl, the crush biscuits, 1/2 cup of fine desiccated coconuts and 2 tablespoons of cocoa. Mix the ingredients well.
- Then slowly stir in the sweetened condensed milk into the mixture. (Don't pour the whole content of the can, pour it in slowly as you only may need 340 grams of the can).
- You know you have the mixture right if the mixture is a dough ball. (If the balls are not holding shape then you may used too much sweetened condensed milk.) You should be able to roll them into a ball without being to hard or to soft.
- Shape the mixture into one-inch balls.
- Place the 1/4 cups of fine desiccated coconut into a flat plate (You may not need the whole 3/4 cups so just fill the flat plate when needed).
- Roll the ball into the fine desiccated coconut.
