Divine Chocolate Coated Coconut

    Devine they certainly are! But I ran into a few problems in the making. First, I do not have a food processor (used a blender and the mixer so probably did not get the coconut completely pulverized). I then needed to add a LOT more powdered sugar to get the mixture to form into a sticky ball; maybe I was supposed to measure the 3 cups without sifting. I left them in the freezer about a half hour too long and the outer shell of the ball was too solid to scoop into balls. I did not find almond bark at my store, so just melted some good quality dark chocolate. There must be some trick to the dipping to make it look nice, but that will have to happen next year. For this year, we are revelling in the taste!
