*Recipe* Chocolate Cherry Coconut Truffles

Well here it is, Christmas Eve Eve!  I thought I would put up one more recipe that you could probably throw together in a pinch before Christmas day if need be.  Now, I'm aware that people are weird about all three of the main ingredients in these Truffles.  Either people don't like dark chocolate, cherries or coconut.  Fine with me, you are weird and that means more for me.  For the few of us that do like all of the ingredients, these are DIVINE.  I had to hide them in the freezer so that I didn't eat them all.  Everyone have a very Merry Christmas!

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cup Graham cracker crumbs
• 1/2 cup desiccated coconut
• 3/4 glaced cherries 
• 2/3 milk chocolate
• 1 cup dark or semi sweet chocolate
• 1 cup sweetened condensed milk

Directions

• If you are using actual graham crackers, crush them up into tiny crumbs.  If you are using pre crushed crumbs, add them to a large bowl, add the coconut and mix together.  
• Finely chop your cherries and milk chocolate and add to cracker/cookie mix and combine. 
• Melt the dark chocolate in the microwave according to directions and then combine with sweetened condensed milk. 
• Working quickly, add the chocolate mixture to the dry ingredients and store well until combined. 

• Cover with plastic wrap and put in fridge for about 30 minutes. 
• Carefully roll out your truffles, approximately teaspoon size or a bit larger. 
• Roll the truffles in more desiccated coconut.
• Store truffles in fridge for up to 5 days or freeze.
