- Chill the chocolates in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes to firm them up.
- In a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate until smooth. If desired, add coconut oil to create a smoother consistency.
- Using a fork or dipping tools, dip each chilled chocolate into the melted white chocolate, coating it evenly.
- Let any excess chocolate drip off before placing the coated chocolate back on the parchment paper.
- While the white chocolate is still wet, sprinkle desiccated coconut or coconut flakes over the top of each chocolate to decorate.
- Let the coated chocolates set at room temperature or place them in the refrigerator to speed up the process. Once the chocolate is fully set, the Raffaello chocolates are ready to be enjoyed.
