Easy Coconut Bonbons image

This recipe was given to me by a friend who makes them for the church bazaar. They are yummy and yet easy to make. You can add food coloring to the cream cheese mixture for any holiday or occasion you like. (Red, green, pink, blue, etc.)

I had a lot of trouble getting the chocolate to coat the bonbons evenly. Maybe I didn't temper it properly? Other than that, they were delicious!

These coconut bonbons were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them again with less sugar next time.

I'm not usually a fan of coconut, but these bonbons were surprisingly good. The chocolate coating really balanced out the coconut flavor.
