White Chocolate Coconut Almond Delight
This weekend I had a bit of a sweet tooth emergency, and raided the pantry to see what we had on hand. We had tiny cupcake liners, sweetened dried coconut, almonds, and white chocolate chips. Let's see what we can do with those! First, we'll put some white chocolate chips into a cupcake pan and top with a single almond. Already a good combination ; ) Then, let's top them off with a pinch of sweetened shredded coconut. This is what really makes it fabulous- the way the coconut toasts in the oven and becomes ever so slightly crunchy is divine! Then pop 'em into an oven at about 350 for 6 or so minutes until the chocolate has melted a bit and the coconut has crisped a bit. If you need to, you can smush each one down with the back of a spoon to help them hold together. When they are crisped and melted to your satisfaction, let them cool on the counter, then pop 'em out of the pan, and let the munching begin! Enjoy! ~...
