Steps:
- Stir together the coconut, condensed milk and vanilla. It should be sticky and hold it's shape when pressed together.
- Melt the chocolate (along with the optional coconut oil to thin it) in a glass bowl over a pan of water, or in the microwave at half power for about 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds or so.
- Drizzle 1 teaspoon of chocolate into the bottom of each cup. Add 1 teaspoon of the coconut mixture. Press on the coconut slightly to make the chocolate slide up the sides of the liner.
- Top the coconut with an almond and then pour a teaspoon of chocolate on top. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to eat. Store in the refrigerator for up to a week or in the freezer for a couple of months. Enjoy!

- Use a cookie scoop or a tablespoon to drop the batter onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are just beginning to brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once the cookies are completely cool, melt the almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl or in a saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly.
- Dip each cookie into the melted almond bark, then roll it in the chopped almonds.
- Place the cookies on a wire rack to allow the almond bark to set completely.
