HOMEMADE ALMOND JOY CANDY BARS
Steps:
- In a heavy sauce pan (over medium on the stove) heat syrup, marshmallows, and salt. Stir until marshmallows are melted.
- Continue to stir over heat for an additional minute.
- Remove from stove and add coconut and vanilla. Stir well and transfer to a bowl to cool in the fridge. The mixture needs to get cool enough that it can be rolled into balls.
- In the meantime, melt the chocolate chips. I like to do the double boiled method by putting them in a metal bowl and placing the bowl over a pot of boiling water.
- Stir until chocolate is melted and smooth. Roll the coconut mixture into small balls or ovals and press an almond into the top.
- Dip each one in chocolate then let cool on a chilled marble slab, parchment paper, or on wax paper over a chilled cookie sheet.For Homemade Mounds: omit the almond and use dark chocolate chips.

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!

COCONUT (ALMOND) JOYS
These do not look like Mounds or Almond Joys, but the taste is very similar. I make these every Christmas along with my cookies and they are very easy and quick to make. They are very pretty on a tray when placed in decorated mini muffin liners.

- In a medium saucepan add the corn syrup, marshmallows, and salt and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the marshmallows are melted. Stir for about a minute longer.
- Remove from heat and stir in coconut and vanilla. Transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until well cooled. (This part could be made days in advance).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Remove coconut mixture from the fridge and scoop into small logs, about the size of a fat tootsie roll, (or double that size if you want them bigger, to fit 2 almonds on top) and place on parchment. Press a whole almond on top of each.
- Place the pan in the fridge or freezer while you melt the chocolate. (The colder the rolled coconut mounds are, the easier they will be to work with).
