It's Almost Christmas!!! (Almond Joy)

I can't believe how close it is to Christmas again..  been a busy little bee making a ton of cookies and candies...  tonight I made some Almond Joy..  so yummy and easy.. 





Almond Joy

1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 pkg coconut
3 c powdered sugar
whole almonds, toasted
milk or dark chocolate

put all in a mixer and beat until blended.
form into small oval shapes and press 1 almond into the top of each one.
place on a wax paper lined baking sheet and place in fridge until firm
melt chocolate either in the microwave or over a water bath.  dip the candy in the chocolate.  I use two forks to turn and then let the excess chocolate drip off and then place on lined cookie sheet.  continue until all are coated.  refrigerate until chocolate is set.
