CHOCOLATE COCONUT CANDIES
These coconut candy balls disappear just as fast as I put them out. They're a snap to whip up and make a beautiful presentation on any holiday cookie plate. I mound them high and sprinkle with coconut...then watch them vanish! -Mary Ann Marino, West Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
