Mix together condensed milk, coconut flakes and butter. Cook in a medium non-stick saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture starts to show the bottom of the pan when scraped with a wooden spoon, about 7 minutes. The coconut mixture should be thick enough to reveal the bottom of the pan for a couple of seconds before the mixture levels out again.
When coconut dough is ready, remove from heat; mix in vanilla extract; spread mixture onto a greased plate. Let cool to room temperature before starting to roll them into balls using greased hands, using a ½ T. as a measurement.
Gently dredge in the coconut flakes until totally covered. Place into paper bonbon cups.
Store in a clean airtight container for up to 2 days at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Makes 28 truffles.
