Almond Joy Candies

Ingredients:
butter, without salt
shortening confectionery, coconut (hydrogenated) and or palm kernel (hydrogenated)
sugars, powdered
nuts, almonds
spartan, real semi-sweet chocolate baking chips,

Directions:
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or brush with melted butter.
Melt butter in a large sauce pan.
Once the butter is melted, remove it from the heat and stir in the coconut and sugar.
Form mixture into small balls with 1 or 2 almonds in the center of each.
I use a heaping tablespoon of the mixture for each ball.
Place chocolate coating in a small glass bowl and microwave on high in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until chocolate is melted and smooth.
Dip each ball into the chocolate and coat evenly.
Use a fork to lift the candies out of the melted chocolate and allow the excess chocolate to drip off.
Place the candies on the cookie sheet and allow to cool completely.
