Cream Cheese Bonbons

1 package (8 ounces)  cream cheese softened

1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup flaked coconut

1 square (1 ounce) unsweetened chocolate, grated

In a small mixing bowl beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.  Stir in coconut until combined. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until easy to handle.

Shape into 1" balls then roll in grated chocolate.  Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.  Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Yield 1 1/2 dozen

Try using almond extract for teh vanilla and chopped toasted almonds for the coconut for a different version.
