Paula Deen Almond Chocolate Balls Recipes

CHOCOLATE ALMOND PIE

Steps:

• Melt marshmallows, candy bars and milk in double boiler. Remove from heat and cool. Whip cream until stiff and fold into cooled mixture. Add vanilla. Pour into prepared crust and chill. Good as-is, or topped with whipped cream.

CHOCOLATE ALMOND BRICKLE

Steps:

• Sprinkle 1 1/4 cup nuts over the bottom of a well-greased 13 by 9-inch baking pan.
• Melt the butter in a medium, heavy-duty saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the sugar. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches 280 degrees F on a candy thermometer, about 7 minutes.
• Pour the hot mixture over the nuts; let stand for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with morsels. Let stand until morsels melt and become shiny and soft, about 5 minutes. Spread evenly.
• Refrigerate for about 20 minutes. Break into bite-size pieces.

CHOCOLATE COCONUT BALLS

Steps:

• In a bowl mix together the nuts, condensed milk, almond extract and coconut. Using your fingers, press the mixture into balls about 3/4-inch round. Place onto sheet trays and let rest at room temperature for 4 hours or in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• After the balls have set up, melt the chocolate and shortening until smooth. Dip into the chocolate to coat evenly and lightly. Place onto a parchment or foil lined sheet pan to dry.
