Drizzle 1 teaspoon of chocolate into the bottom of each cup. Add 1 teaspoon of the coconut mixture. Press on the coconut slightly to make the chocolate slide up the sides of the liner.

COCONUT-AND-ALMOND CANDY

Coconut-and-Almond Candy image

The killer combination of coconut, almonds, and milk chocolate makes for a delectable candy bar. One of the most iconic of American candies, the Almond Joy, is famous for its creamy coconut filling topped with almonds and covered in milk chocolate. Its sibling, the Mounds bar, has the same coconut center but no almonds. Although the recipes for these two candies are top secret, it's possible to make wonderfully coconutty chocolate candies in your own home.

MOUNDS BALLS

Mounds Balls image

I make these bite-sized treats as gifts for friends-and I get lots of thank-you notes in return. The mailman doesn't mind delivering them, though. He gets a box of candy, too! We have three generations of family working together on our dairy farm in the "thumb" of Michigan. Everyone agrees these milky morsels promote our product deliciously. -Kathy Dorman, Snover, Michigan

To make the coconut layer of homemade mounds bars, start by melting the coconut oil and honey over low heat until soft. Don’t overheat. Whisk to combine. Add the extract and coconut flakes. Alternatively, just dump it all in a bowl and mash together with your hands until well blended.
To make the coconut and almond layer of homemade almond joy bars, start by melting the coconut oil and honey over low heat until soft. Don’t overheat. Whisk to combine. Add the almond extract and coconut flakes. Alternatively, just dump it all in a bowl and mash together with your hands until well blended.
To assemble the candy, you can use a standard 12 compartment muffin tin or two miniature muffin tins with 12 compartments. Another option is candy molds. I purchased a Wilton 24 compartment silicon mold with 1.5 x 1.5 inch squares and a plastic Make’n Mold 12 compartment peanut butter cup mold. One recipe filled the silicon mold and the peanut butter cup mold, and left a little extra chocolate that I poured into the mini muffin cups.
Divide the coconut mixture evenly between your compartments. Make sure you get an even mixture of coconut flakes and coconut oil. Press firmly into pan/mold to get a solid candy with no air pockets. If making almond joy bars, place one or more almonds in each compartment.
