INGREDIENTS:
1 pkg. (3 oz.) cream cheese, softened
2-1/2 cups sifted powdered sugar (sift before measuring)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dash salt
1 drop green food color or 1 drop red food color
1/3 to 1/2 cup flaked coconut
INSTRUCTIONS: In medium bowl, with wooden spoon, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually beat in powdered sugar blending thoroughly. Beat in vanilla and salt. Add just enough food color to tint a delicate green (or dark pink). Refrigerate, covered, 1 hour. Then shape into balls using a rounded teaspoon of mixture for each. Roll each in coconut. Place on cookie sheet covered with waxed paper; refrigerate several hours or until firm.
