Mix the coconut milk and the honey in a sauce pan. Bring it to a boil, then simmer for about 2 hours, stirring the mixture once in a while. You will notice the mixture getting thicker and after 2 hours it should be thick enough so that it does not run off the spoon easily.
Add the butter, vanilla and the shredded coconut and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly so it doesn't burn. When the mixture starts to release off the bottom of the pan and has a very thick consistency, remove it from the stove and let it cool.
Place it in the refrigerator for about 2 hours. It is very important ithat t is cool before you roll it.
Remove from the refrigerator, butter your hands, and start rolling the truffles into balls. Roll each ball in the shredded coconut.
Makes about 20 balls.
