Step 1

TO START, YOU’RE GOING TO NEED TO MAKE ONE OF YOUR CANS OF SWEETENED CONDENSED MILK MAGICALLY TRANSFORM INTO DULCE DE LECHE. IF YOUR GROCERY STORE SELLS DULCE DE LEECH, YOU CAN BUY IT. BUT IT’S JUST AS EASY TO MAKE IT YOURSELF.

Step 2

PEEL THE LABEL OFF OF ONE OF THE CANS OF SWEETENED CONDENSED MILK. THEN PLACE IT IN A POT OR LARGE SAUCEPAN AND COVER IT WITH WATER BY 1 TO 2 INCHES. BRING IT TO A VERY GENTLE BOIL, THEN REDUCE THE HEAT TO LOW, SO THAT THE WATER HAS A NICE SLOW SIMMER. WATCH THE WATER LEVEL AND ADD WATER IF THE LEVEL OF WATER FALLS BELOW THE TOP OF THE CANS. SIMMER THE CAN FOR ABOUT 3 HOURS. (USING TONGS, VERY CAREFULLY TURN OVER THE CAN HALFWAY THROUGH THE SIMMERING PROCESS.) THEN, TURN OFF THE HEAT AND LET THE CAN COME TO ROOM TEMPERATURE. DON’T OPEN THE CAN WHILE IT’S STILL HOT!

Step 3

WHILE YOU’RE WAITING, PREHEAT YOUR OVEN TO 350 F. SPRINKLE YOUR COCONUT IN AN EVEN LAYER ON A BAKING SHEET. BAKE FOR ABOUT 10 – 15 MINUTES, OR GOLDEN BROWN. I LIKE TO FLIP THE COCONUT EVER FEW MINUTES SO IT DOESN’T BURN.

Step 4

IN A LARGE BOWL, COMBINE YOUR COOKIE CRUMBS, TOASTED COCONUT, CAN OF DULCE DE LECHE & CAN OF SWEETENED CONDENSED MILK. PLACE THE BOWL INTO THE REFRIGERATOR FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES.

Step 5

MELT YOUR CHOCOLATE IN A MICROWAVE SAFE BOWL. STIRRING EVER MINUTE OR SO UNTIL COMPLETELY MELTED.

Step 6

I LIKE TO LINE MY BAKING SHEET WITH PARCHMENT PAPER SO THAT THE TRUFFLES DON’T STICK.

Step 7

USING A SMALL COOKIE SCOOP (I USED THIS ONE), MAKE SMALL BALLS OUT OF THE TRUFFLE MIXTURE. DIP THE BOTTOM INTO THE MELTED CHOCOLATE AND PLACE ONTO YOUR BAKING SHEET. ONCE YOU’RE FINISHED, DRIZZLE THE REMAINING CHOCOLATE ON EACH TRUFFLE. I JUST PUT IT INTO A SMALL PLASTIC BAG AND SNIPPED THE END OFF!

Step 8

PUT THE TRUFFLES INTO THE FREEZER FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES. THEN STORE THEM IN AN AIRTIGHT CONTAINER IN THE FRIDGE OR FREEZER.
