- In a mixing bowl, beat 8 ounces of softened cream cheese and 1/2 cup (1 stick) of softened butter until completely smooth and creamy.
- Add 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1 1/2 cups of sweetened shredded coconut. Mix until thoroughly combined.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 1 1/2 hours, or until the mixture is firm enough to handle.
- Lightly dust your hands with powdered sugar. Roll rounded tablespoonfuls of the coconut mixture into egg shapes.
- Place the shaped eggs onto a baking sheet lined with waxed paper.
- Freeze for 2 hours, or until the eggs are slightly firm.

- Remove the eggs from the freezer a few at a time.
- Dip each egg into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Place the chocolate-covered eggs back onto the waxed paper-lined baking sheet.
- Refrigerate until the chocolate is completely hardened.
