Christmas Mound Cookies
Centers: 24 ounces
flake coconut 1 pound powdered sugar, sifted 1 can sweetened
condensed milk (don't know how to make it so use canned)!
Mix
thoroughly. Roll into 1 inch balls (or smaller I prefer about
3/4 in) freeze. Mom used to place a toothpick in each one for
easy dipping.
Outside: 12 to 24 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
(I use chips) for each 12 ounces chocolate, 1 ounce
paraffin
Melt in double boiler or slow cooker and dip frozen
centers. Freezing is not absolutely necessary but it helps set up
the chocolate really fast. I try to store them in the freezer but
my family always finds them and eats them. I usually end up
making a second batch to give away. One batch makes about 120
pieces of candy. They really do taste a lot like the candy
bar.
