OK so I know that I post a ton of recipes but that is what i love... so here is another one
Mounds or Almond Joy
Makes about 3 dozen bars
You will need...
5 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups powdered sugar
14 ounces premium shredded or flaked coconut
one 24 ounce package semisweet chocolate chips
getting on to making them...
1. Blend the condensed milk and vanilla
2. add the powdered sugar to the above mixture a little bit at a time.stirring until smooth.
3. Stir in the coconut. The mixture should be firm.
4. Pat the mixture firmly into a greased 9 x 13 x 2 inch pan. Chill in the fridge until firm.
5. in a double boiler over hot (not boiling) water, melt the chocolate, stirring often. You may also use a microwave oven. Place the chips in a bowl and let for 1 minute on high: stir then hear for 1 minute more.
6. Remove the coconut mixture from the refrigerator and cut it into 1 x 2 inch bars.
7. Set each coconut bar onto a fork and dip into the chocolate. Tap the fork against the side of the pan or bowl to remove any excess chocolate.
8. Air-Dry at room temperature on waxed paper. This could take several; hours, but chocolate sets best at cool room temperature. (below 70 degrees). You may speed up the process by placing the bars in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
And if you feel like a nut...
1. add 1 cup dry roasted almonds to the to the list of ingredients.
2. Substitute milk chocolate chips for the semisweet chocolate
3. In step 8, place 2 almonds atop each bar before dipping.
and enjoy....
but be careful they are too good. addicting one might say.
