I remember making a coconut candy in about 1979. I don't remember the specifics but thought it might have been a recipe from a magazine ad calling for sweetened coconut with sweetened condensed milk and rolled into balls. A small indent was made in the top (similar to a thumb print cookie) and the indentation was filled w/ melted chocolate. I seem to remember the chocolate may have been unsweetened and the flavor contrast was terrific.

I don't remember any other ingredients. There was no cooking. It reminded me of Mounds candy bar rather than a macaroon.

I wrote to two magazines (Sunset & BHG) asking if the recipe might be in their collection. Neither magazine remembered the recipe which is why I think it might have been from an ad.

Can anyone remember this one? Would like to try it again this holiday season. Thank you so much.
