2 cups peanut butter
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup butter
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Choco-coconut Candy Bars


This recipe is very similar to the Mounds candy bar. With few ingredients, it is surprisingly easy to make. The needed ingredients and directions to prepare is here:


INGREDIENTS:
5 ounces sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups confectioners' sugar
14 ounces flaked coconut
4 cups semisweet chocolate chips



DIRECTIONS:
1.   Blend the condensed milk and the vanilla together in a bowl. Add the powdered sugar a
little at a time, blending each time until smooth. Stir in the coconut. You should
have a firm mixture. Pat the mixture into a greased 9 x 13 inch pan and chill until
firm.

2.   Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat on high 1 minute at a
time, stirring after each minute, until melted. Remove the pan from the refrigerator
and cut the coconut mixture into 1 x 2 inch bars.

3.   Set each bar on a fork and dip into the chocolate, completely coating the bar. Let
excess drip off, then set on waxed paper. Repeat for each bar. Bars will take several
hours to air-dry; if you are in a hurry you can refrigerate the bars for about 30
minutes. Enjoy!
