1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, finely crushed Golden Oreo cookies, and 1 cup of toasted coconut. Mix until the mixture is smooth and fully blended. If the mixture is too soft, chill it in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes to make it easier to handle.

3
Melt the white chocolate baking squares or Almond Bark in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring in between until fully melted and smooth.
4
Dip each cookie ball into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off before placing them back onto the lined baking sheet.
5
After dipping, immediately sprinkle the remaining toasted coconut over the chocolate coating to enhance the flavor and presentation.
6
Chill the truffles in the refrigerator for about 1 hour or until the chocolate is set and the truffles are firm.
