List of Ingredients
1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 ounce)
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
3 cups shredded coconut
45 whole salted almondsRecipe
Preheat oven to 350°F. In the top of a double boiler, combine the condensed milk, chocolate and salt. Cook over rapidly boiling water, stirring often, for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the mixture thickens. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and coconut. Form cookies by dropping teaspoons of the mixture on a well-greased sheet, 1-inch apart. Top each with a whole almond. Bake on the middle shelf of the oven for 10 to 12 minutes, watching the cookies carefully after 8 or 9 minutes, as the bottom can get too brown. Immediately remove cookies from the pan with a metal spatula and cool on a parchment covered rack.
**These freeze very well. Makes 45 small cookies.
