2. Bring coconut milk to a gentle boil in small saucepan over medium heat.
3. Add coconut milk to chocolate mixture; whisk gently to blend.
4. Place chocolate mixture, covered, in refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
5. Using a melon baller or spoon, scoop out 1 Tbsp. of chocolate mixture. Roll into a ball. Roll in cocoa powder until evenly coated. Repeat to make twelve truffles.
6. Store in refrigerator for up to one week or in freezer for three months.
