SERVINGS

1 batches scale / convert

INGREDIENTS

1/2 lb. butter
4 lb. powdered sugar
1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
Chocolate almond bark
White almond bark
Nuts, chopped (optional)
Peanut butter
Coconut flakes

INSTRUCTIONS

Mix together butter and milek, add sugar until it is a thin mixture (approx. 2 lb. sugar) Divide into bowls for different flavors and or nuts. Add 1 tsp. of flavoring per bowl, it is best if you can use the powdered flavorings since they don't thin the mixture more. Now you can add coconut, peanut butter, nuts etc to each bowl for different types of finished candy, knead the 'dough' in powdered sugar until it is firm. Made small balls from the 'dough'. Melt almond bark in a double boiler, or in the microwave being careful not to boil or scorch it. Allow the bark to cool some so that it thickens slightly, then using a candy dipper, drop the balls into the bark, coating them well, remove and place on waxed paper lined cookie sheets. If you play with it you can make a little swirl on top of each candy. The peanut butter with chocolate is better than a reeses cup.
