MOUNDS BALLS
I make these bite-sized treats as gifts for friends-and I get lots of thank-you notes in return. The mailman doesn't mind delivering them, though. He gets a box of candy, too! We have three generations of family working together on our dairy farm in the "thumb" of Michigan. Everyone agrees these milky morsels promote our product deliciously. -Kathy Dorman, Snover, Michigan

Steps:
- 1. Empty coconut into a large bowl, add Karo syrup (enough to make it gooey, it will snap crackle and pop like rice krispies when you have enough) It needs to be able to be shaped into a ball and hold its shape. If you get too much syrup..just add a little more coconut, the ingredients are not an exact science. Mix well with a spoon.GREASE HANDS WELL WITH BUTTER, FREQUENTLY...YOU WILL HAVE TO WASH THE COCONUT OFF OF YOUR HANDS BEFORE EACH BUTTERING.
- 2. Roll into balls one at a time and drop each ball as its rolled into the following: 1 bag of melted semi sweet chocolate chips with 1/3 of a bar of gulfwax melted together. I do this in a double boiler. As you roll each ball, drop it into the melted chocolate for coating,lay each ball onto wax paper that covers a cookie sheet. When the sheet is full, pop into the freezer for a few minutes to set the chocolate. When the chocolate is hardened enough to remove from the wax paper, do so and store the balls in a cookie tin. Layering with wax paper between each row.

Tips:

- Shred your own coconut: Pre-shredded coconut can be dry and flavorless. Shredding your own coconut will give you a more moist and flavorful result.
- Toast the coconut: Toasting the coconut will bring out its flavor and give it a golden brown color.
- Use a good quality chocolate: The chocolate is the main ingredient in these balls, so it's important to use a good quality chocolate that you enjoy the taste of.
- Temper the chocolate: Tempering the chocolate will help it set properly and give it a smooth, glossy finish.
- Chill the balls before dipping them in chocolate: This will help the chocolate set more quickly and prevent it from melting.
- Use a variety of toppings: You can use a variety of toppings to decorate your coconut mound balls, such as chopped nuts, sprinkles, or grated chocolate.
