Make the Coconut Mixture

1. Mix Coconut Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the shredded coconut, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir until everything is well combined and a sticky dough forms.
2. Shape the Balls: Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, roll the coconut mixture into balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a parchment-lined tray.

Chill the Coconut Balls

1. Chill: Pop the tray into the fridge for about 15-30 minutes to allow the coconut balls to firm up.

Prepare the Chocolate Coating

1. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate and coconut oil in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely smooth.
2. Dip the Coconut Balls: Remove the chilled coconut balls from the fridge. Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated. Return the chocolate-covered balls to the tray.

Let the Chocolate Set

1. Chill Again: Place the coconut balls back in the fridge for about 10-15 minutes, or until the chocolate has set.
