Ingredients
- 4 oz Unsweetened Baking Chocolate
- 1 1/2 cups SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener
- 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 1/4 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 2 1/4 cups unsweetened flaked coconut
- 3 cups whole toasted almonds
Instructions
- Finely chop the unsweetened baking chocolate and place in a medium bowl with the Splenda.
- Heat cream in a small saucepan on low. Whisk in the cocoa powder when it begins to bubble. Pour over the chopped chocolate and Splenda.
- Stir to melt the chopped chocolate and blend all the ingredients well. Stir in the vanilla extract. Fold in 1 1/2 cups of shredded coconut and the crushed almonds.
- Cover and refrigerate overnight to solidify.
- The next day roll out 36 balls by the tablespoonful in the palm of your hand. Place them on a wax paper lined sheet pan so they do not stick.
- When they are all rolled out begin rolling one side in the remaining coconut and place a whole almond in the center and gently press down to slightly flatten candy. Repeat process for all.
- Refrigerate for about 1 to 2 more hours to chill thoroughly.
