COCONUT-AND-ALMOND CANDY



Coconut-and-Almond Candy image

The killer combination of coconut, almonds, and milk chocolate makes for a delectable candy bar. One of the most iconic of American candies, the Almond Joy, is famous for its creamy coconut filling topped with almonds and covered in milk chocolate. Its sibling, the Mounds bar, has the same coconut center but no almonds. Although the recipes for these two candies are top secret, it's possible to make wonderfully coconutty chocolate candies in your own home.

MOUNDS BALLS

I make these bite-sized treats as gifts for friends-and I get lots of thank-you notes in return. The mailman doesn't mind delivering them, though. He gets a box of candy, too! We have three generations of family working together on our dairy farm in the "thumb" of Michigan. Everyone agrees these milky morsels promote our product deliciously. -Kathy Dorman, Snover, Michigan

Tips:

  • Make sure the butter and cream cheese are softened to room temperature before creaming together. This will help create a smooth and lump-free batter.
  • Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream the butter and cream cheese together until light and fluffy. This will take about 2 minutes on medium speed.
  • Add the sugar gradually, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the batter from becoming grainy.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Pour the batter into a greased and floured 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake in a preheated 350 degree Fahrenheit oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • While the bars are baking, make the chocolate ganache. Heat the heavy cream and corn syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly. Bring to a simmer and remove from heat.
  • Add the chopped chocolate to the hot cream mixture and whisk until melted and smooth. Let the ganache cool slightly before pouring it over the cooled bars.
  • Refrigerate the bars for at least 2 hours before serving. This will help the ganache to set and the bars to firm up.

Conclusion:

Coconut Peter Paul Mounds Bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. The combination of chocolate, coconut, and cream cheese makes for a truly decadent dessert. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a batch of these bars that will be sure to please everyone.
