Linda’s Coconut Cream Almond Joy Easter Eggs,Easter just doesn’t get any better than this! These eggs are FABULOUS… If you need a chocolate fix these are good anytime!Great project to make with the kids. Be prepared to make an afternoon of it! Please try my other recipes for Easter Eggs too! Recipe #220417 and Recipe #220316.,Should use sweetened or unsweetened coconut?,I made a few changes in making these; I added coconut extract and only used 3/4 of the sugar. I had decided not to make these again because they were so sweet and so hard to coat nicely (probably my inexperience coating). Anyway, to make a long story short, everyone raved about these so much that I’ll have to make them again. They even offered to hire me to make them! Thank you for sharing.
