Coconut Bon Bons

Who doesn't love bon bons? My husband's grandmother sends us these sweet treats every Christmas. I had to have the recipe and make these because once a year is just not enough!

These bon bons will remind you of an Almond Joy just add almonds instead of walnuts. Start with 3 cups of nuts and add more to your preference. Grandma puts in 4 cups of walnuts.These are so good and I hope you enjoy them as much as our family.

Ingredients 
20 oz. confectioner sugar
1 tbs softened butter
1 Pinch of salt
1 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
7 oz. pkg of angel flake Coconut
2 cups chopped walnuts (add more if you prefer)
20 oz. semi sweet chocolate chips

Directions
Mix together the first 5 ingredients until well blended. The mixture will be sticky.
Add Angel Flake Coconut and chopped walnuts and continue mixing until blended.
Roll mixture into balls and place on a wax paper lined cookie sheet.
Refrigerate the coconut balls over night.
The next day set your Crock-Pot on low and melt the semi sweet chocolate chips; stirring occasionally.
Once chocolate is melted turn your Crock-Pot off.
Roll coconut balls in the chocolate until covered completely. Roll 1 ball at a time. If the coconut balls stay to long in the Crock-Pot they will begin to fall apart from the heat.
Place bon bons back on the wax paper lined cookie sheet.
Refrigerate and serve when chocolate has set.
