Almond Joy Cookie Balls
 

2 (1 ounce)squares unsweetened chocolate

1 (14 ounce) can condensed milk

3 cups sweetened flaked coconut

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 pinch salt

whole almonds


Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with

parchment paper. In the top half of a double boiler melt the chocolate

and condensed milk, stirring frequently. Pour the melted chocolate

mixture over the coconut. Stir in the vanilla and salt. Mix well until

the coconut is completely coated. Drop dough by teaspoonfuls onto the

prepared baking sheet. Press one whole almond into the top of each

cookie. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 10 to 12 minutes.

Check at 8 minutes as the bottoms tend to burn easily.

Remove from oven and cool. Makes 3 to 4 dozen
