Directions
Coconut Candy, I especially like the Almond Joy version of this recipe I found it years ago in Family Circle , Fantastic! This is reminiscent of the coconut candy my Caribbean mother used to make for us as kids Perfect for my child with multiple food allergies I made exactly as directed, just halving the recipe because we only had a 7 oz package of coconut Sprayed non-stick spray on a rubber spatula and mini cookie scoop to make working with the stickiness easier Let cool on wax paper also sprayed with non-stick spray Took about 7 minutes total, came out wonderfully Thanks for sharing, this one is going in the rotation!
