OK... so with the leftover melted Chocolate from the Banana Pop Treats, I decided to not waste it. I had shredded coconut already out from the pops. So what I did was add coconut to the chocolate and then added sliced, hand-crushed almonds to the melted chocolate. I stirred it and then took a cookie scooper (small ice-cream scoop) and made small mounds and put them in a cool place (fridge or freezer) and let them set up.
If you like Almond Joys, you'd love these.
I got the inspiration from a candy store that used to be in Tanger Outlet Mall in Riverhead, NY. They used to sell these things I believe they called haystacks and they were just mound of chocolate and coconut similar to these. i thought the almonds would add a bit more and the crunch it added made them even better.
