Directions

Combine the chocolate and coconut oil in a medium-sized bowl and set aside. Heat coconut milk and Espresso Powder in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until simmering and pour over chocolate and oil. Stir gently with a rubber spatula until smooth and combined. Cover mixture and chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours or until solid. Toast coconut in a skillet over medium-high heat for 3 to 5 minutes or until golden. Place toasted coconut in a shallow bowl. In a separate shallow bowl, mix Dutch Cocoa Powder and powdered sugar. Use a small (1-inch in diameter) melon baller or scooper, scoop 36 balls of the chocolate mixture. Roll each ball of chocolate to form a smooth ball and coat in either the coconut flakes or cocoa powder mixture. Serve right away or store in the refrigerator.
