Coconut Joys

This is such a easy yummy, quick treat! I got it from an enrichment activity years ago and make it for others all the time. It is a sweet gluten free treat!


2 Cups Powdered Sugar
1/2 C Butter, soften, not melted
3 Cups coconut

1/2-2/3 Cup of semi sweet chocolate chips melted.

Mix first 3 ingredients well with the back of a spoon. Then use your hands as needed to make it stick all together and blend well.

Roll mixture into balls about the size of nickel. The smaller the more you make and tastier they are. Place on wax paper on cookie sheets.










Then melt chocolate in a glass container for 30 seconds, stir, 30 more seconds, stir, then 30 more (as needed). Pour chocolate into a plastic Ziploc baggie. Be careful to get chocolate only on one side, then cut a small tip off the corner of the clean side of the bag. Drizzle chocolate any way you like. I like to make swirls or stripes, smiley faces, hearts, letters, anything you want, really go crazy.



Then carefully (they can roll) place all into the fridge uncovered for 10-15 minutes or until
harden. Either eat and enjoy or place into a seal container and place back in fridge for storage.
