A very nice lady shared this recipe with me. Her mother, who worked at a candy store, passed it to her. I think you will find these to be a real treat! (Prep time includes refrigeration.) Ingredients:
1 (14 ounce) can condensed milk |
8 ounces melted butter |
2 lbs powdered sugar |
12 ounces coconut |
16 ounces chopped walnuts |
20 ounces maraschino cherries, diced |
24 ounces chocolate chips |
1/2 lb paraffin wax |
Directions:
1. Mix first 6 ingredients in a very large bowl. Refrigerate mixture for at least 3 hours.
2. Roll mixture into about 1” balls again and refrigerate an additional 1/2 hour.
3. Melt chocolate and paraffin wax together in a double broiler, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon.
4. When chocolate mixture is melted, dip candy balls into mixture using toothpicks. Let cool on wax paper.
