Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 oz sweetened condensed milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 c powdered sugar
14 oz shredded coconut
24 oz milk chocolate chips or semi sweet
1 c whole roasted almonds

Steps:

  • 1. Blend the condensed milk and vanilla. Add the powdered sugar to the above mixture a little at a time, stirring until smooth. Stir in the coconut. The mixture should be firm. Pat the mixture firmly into a greased 9x13x2-inch pan. Chill in the refrigerator until firm. In a double boiler over hot, not boiling water, melt the chocolate, stirring often. You may also use a microwave. Remove the coconut mixture from the refrigerator and cut it into 1x2-inch bars. Put 2 whole almonds atop each bar. Set each coconut bar onto a fork and dip it into the chocolate. Tap the fork against the side of the pan or bowl to remove any excess chocolate. Air dry at room temperature on waxed paper for several hours. You may speed up the process by putting in the refrigerator for 30 minutes

These were a little bit too sweet for my liking, but overall they were still good.

I used chopped walnuts instead of almonds and they turned out great!

These were really easy to make and turned out great! I used a mixture of dark and milk chocolate for the coating and it was delicious.

I had some trouble getting the chocolate to coat the Almond Joys evenly, but they still tasted great.

These were really good! The only thing I would change is using a little less sugar in the chocolate coating. Otherwise, they were perfect!

These were so easy to make and turned out so delicious! I used dark chocolate and it was the perfect combination with the coconut and almonds. Definitely a new favorite treat!
