Preheat oven to 350F. In top of double boiler, combine condensed milk, chocolate and salt. Cook over rapidly boiling water; stirring often, for 5 to 7 minutes, or till until mixture thickens. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and coconut. Form cookies by dropping teaspoons of mixture on well greased baking sheet, 1" apart. Top each with a whole almond. Bake on middle sheet of oven for 10-12 minutes, watching cookies carefully after 8-9 minutes,as the bottom can get too brown. Immediately remove cookies from pan with metal spatula and cool on wax peper covered rack.
These taste a bit like the chocolate bars; hence the name. They freeze well. Almond Joy Candy printer friendly version located here. Click Back to return. |
