COCONUT BONBONS
I made these for Christmas and they were everyones FAVORITE! The taste like Mounds Bars...BUT BETTER! Even if you don't like coconut you HAVE to try these! It makes it easier to form them into balls if you refrigerate the dough for awhile first. Oh, and I like to store these in the refrigerator.

- In a medium non-stick saucepan, mix the condensed milk and butter together, and cook over medium-low heat (large burner) or medium heat (small burner), stirring constantly, until the mixture has reduced, thickened, and begins to show the bottom of the pan when scraped with a wood spoon (about 5 minutes). The mixture should be thick enough to reveal the bottom of the pan for a couple of seconds before the mixture levels out again.
- Remove pan from heat and stir in both the vanilla and the coconut flakes until obtaining an homogeneous mixture. Place mixture onto a greased plate and let cool to room temperature before starting to roll them into balls with either ungreased or only very lightly greased hands (mixture is so thick that it barely stick to hands). Use a 1/2 Tablespoon as measurement.
- Meanwhile, in a separate medium nonstick pan, stir in the sugar, water, and vinegar together until combined. Bring to a boil over medium heat, without stirring at all (this is to prevent caramel from forming crystals), until sugar has dissolved completely and takes on a light caramel/golden honey color (It is important not to let the caramel become dark, or else the glass bonbons can turn out bitter). Beginning 5-7 minutes from when mixture first starts to boil, watch pan constantly in order to avoid caramel quickly turning dark or even burning.
- Reduce heat to low, tilt pan with one hand and then coat each of the coconut balls in caramel. You can either stick a long wood skewer or toothpick into each ball, rotating in order to drip off excess caramel, or you can use a fork to help you coat the balls. Please, be careful to not burn yourself with the hot caramel.
