MOUNDS MARTINI
I absolutely LOVE Mounds candy bars... but they may have to take a back seat to this yummy drink! The perfect dessert drink to sip after preparing a Blue Ribbon meal.

Steps:
- 1. Pour both ingredients into a martini shaker with 3 cubes of ice and strain into a martini glass. Enjoy. I've rimmed the glass with chocolate milk mix and a mixture of cocoa and powdered sugar, but the martini is wonderful by itself.
- 2. Sometimes you feel like a nut...if you do, add 2 ounces of Kahlua for an Almond Joy martini.
- 3. If you are making this recipe ahead, skip the ice and refrigerate the mixture in the martini shaker for a ready-to-pour cocktail.
MOUNDS BAR MARTINI
If you like chocolate and coconut, then this drink's for you! This is just amazing! I'm not exactly a "coconut" person, but when I had one at a friend's house, let me tell you,I became one pretty quickly! Not only is this double delish,they are only 112 calories and no fat!! I became one pretty quickly! Get your ingredients ready so you can launch a few of these on the 4th of July! I always take my things out of the original boxes, etc. for creating space in my kitchen, so I don't have the net weight, but I do have one more envelope left. The individual packet is 8.55oz. each. I will check on the box when I go to the store and make the proper adjustments. Once you've made and tried one or two of these, you're not going to care about ounces! lol
