Dipped Candies
- 1/2 lb. butter
- 4 lb. powdered sugar
- 1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
- Chocolate almond bark
- White almond bark
- Nuts, chopped (optional)
- Peanut butter
- Coconut flakes
- Mix together butter and milek, add sugar until it is a thin mixture (approx.
- 2 lb.
- sugar) Divide into bowls for different flavors and or nuts.
- Add 1 tsp.
- of flavoring per bowl, it is best if you can use the powdered flavorings since they don't thin the mixture more.
- Now you can add coconut, peanut butter, nuts etc to each bowl for different types of finished candy, knead the 'dough' in powdered sugar until it is firm.
- Made small balls from the 'dough'.
- Melt almond bark in a double boiler, or in the microwave being careful not to boil or scorch it.
- Allow the bark to cool some so that it thickens slightly, then using a candy dipper, drop the balls into the bark, coating them well, remove and place on waxed paper lined cookie sheets.
- If you play with it you can make a little swirl on top of each candy.
- The peanut butter with chocolate is better than a reeses cup.
