Coconut Candy Bar Bites
These candies are an impressive gift. I love giving homemade truffles for the holidays.
If you are more of an Almond Joy kind of person, you can add a toasted almond to the top of the coconut balls before freezing. Because sometimes you feel like a nut!
After they are frozen you can dip them into the melted chocolate. Let the candies sit until the chocolate is firm.
Homemade mounds bars
To make these easy to make mounds balls into mounds bars all you need to do is shape the coconut mixture into bar-shaped mounds.
Then freeze the bars until solid. Carefully dip the bars in the melted chocolate. Remove and then let sit until the chocolate is firm.
