COCONUT JOYS
This originally comes from one of the Southern Living Christmas Family Favorites. I like mine a lot smaller than in the original recipe and I use a lot more chocolate! I make these almost every Christmas I make cookies to give out!

Steps:
- 1. Soften butter, but do not melt. Beat in powdered sugar, then coconut.
- 2. Take rounded teaspoons, roll into balls and put on wax paper. Push a small dent into the tops with your finger.
- 3. Melt chocolate squares and fill dents with chocolate. Refrigerate.
- 4. *I like to pour melted chocolate into a ziploc bag with the corner snipped off to "pipe" the chocolate onto the cookies.
COCONUT JOYS
We always made these for our Christmas Cookie plates. They are similar to the popular Mounds candy but the unsweetened chocolate gives it a bit more kick. You'll want to use REAL butter and not margarine or chefs spread and the quantity of candies you get will depend on how large you make them.

COCONUT (ALMOND) JOYS
These do not look like Mounds or Almond Joys, but the taste is very similar. I make these every Christmas along with my cookies and they are very easy and quick to make. They are very pretty on a tray when placed in decorated mini muffin liners.
