Recipe Introduction


"This here goodies are my nephew's favorites. (We suspect that some big company stole my recipe, cause they make a "joyful" concoction that tastes suspiciously like mine!)"


List of Ingredients




1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cup white corn syrup
1/2 cup water
14 oz. (4c.) flaked coconut
1/2 tsp. almond extract
65-70 toasted almonds
1 (12 oz) bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips


Recipe



Cook sugar, corn syrup and water over low heat, stirrin' til sugar dissolves. Cook to soft ball. Take it off the heat and add yer coconut and almond extract. Pour the whole mess onto a large platter to cool down. When it's cool, shape it into a big ball and stick it in the fridge til it's cold. When it's good and cold, start meltin' yer chocolate chips. While theys meltin', shape the candy into little balls and press an almond on each one, then dip it in chocolate. Put it on wax paper to cool. Keep an eye on these while they cool, cause if Peter or Paul is around, they tend to disappear!
