As soon as I saw this recipe I knew I would have to try it. These are better than the candy bar you buy! I had the margarine at room temperature, and I used 2 T of crisco instead of the paraffin wax. They were very good. Fresh and chewy! This is a keeper!! -
My mother and I both love coconut, so I tried these and they were fantastic. The only change I made was to add one whole almond to each piece to make an almond joy before dipping in chocolate, it was delicious. -
Recipes like this are what make me love Recipezaar! These are delicious, they taste just like the real thing and they are so easy to make. I put mine in the freezer to chill and they were much easier to handle than from the refrigerator. -
darlene adds almond and coconut flavoring probably a 1/4 teaspoonful great recipe

I am Married to the same guy for 40 years,I Have 2 beautiful Daughters, who have given me 6
grand and glorious grandchildren.
I love to cook,in fact you could call it my favorite hobby
My pet peeve is telemarketers,Every time I get busy with my recipe hobby one of them will call and knock me off the web,and of coarse I waste precious time getting back on.I am disabled,so I no longer work,and have plenty of time to pursue my hobby.
My best dish I make is Lasagna but thats just because I love lasagna.I am also asked to bring No-Bake cookies at all of our potlucks, and linger-longers at church.Meat loaf is another often requested dish I am asked to bring...... NOT MY meatloaf but .... My husbands.
He is as good a cook as I am,He can cook anything I can cook, and I can cook anything he can cook,but some things I make better,and some He makes better...So we do a lot of compromising at our house.
