Coconut Bonbons
Source of Recipe
Aunt Saunny
These are really filled chocolates but one filling is
coconut.
1 2-lb. bag powdered sugar
1 lb. butter (no substitutes)
1 can sweetened condensed milk
2 lbs. dipping chocolate
Mix powdered sugar, milk and butter very gross but with
your hands until creamy and smooth. Divide into five parts
and add flavorings (not extracts as the alcohol will mess
with the filling)
Suggested flavors for each portion:
1 small bag coconut and 1 tsp. vanilla
3/4 cup peanut butter
1 tsp. of any flavoring or flavored oil
1 small bag walnuts and 1 tsp. maple flavoring
or maraschino cherries (dry each one and wrap with the filling)
Roll into small balls and freeze for several hours.
Melt chocolate and dip centers and place on waxed paper.
Allow to set for a half hour although the maraschino cherry
centers are better if they sit for 24 hours
