melt butter in microwave in glass bowl until completely melted, add powdered sugar and coconut and mix well. Shape into balls, using rounded teaspoon. Easiest to scoop with spoon and then roll into balls in the palm of your hands. Make an indentation in center of each ball (I use my thumb) and place on cookie sheet. They kind of look like a birds nest I think after you make the center hole. Microwave chocolate chips until melted on full power. Fill the center with melted chocolate and chill until firm. Store in refrigerator. Makes about 36. I almost always run out of the melted chocolate and have to melt some more. They are really easy and kids love to make them! Adults love to eat them.
