Great during the holidays. My best friend gave me this one holiday time. It is her mother's recipe. If you like coconut, you'll like this. It reminds you of Mounds bars.

That seems like a whole lot of paraffin wax doesn't it? I love mounds bars.
Sometimes you feel like a nut. Sometimes you don't. Almond Joy has nuts. Mounds don't.
The jingle says you don't use nuts in mounds bars.
Had plenty of mounds bars during my formative years and never a nut crossed my lips while enjoying them.
