Watching my mom make this candy every Christmas is a core memory for me. She always made a LOT and handed it around whenever company showed up and sent it out on goodie plates. Things like this become a part of holiday tradition. Food is such an important part of the magic.

They are pretty fast and easy so a winner on all fronts!

Melt the butter and chocolate together.

Next mix in the powdered sugar and egg until smooth and creamy.

Spread coconut onto a clean counter and spoon chocolate down the center.

Wrap in cling wrap and chill for 3 hours. Slice into pieces.

Store covered in refrigerator when not serving.

ENJOY!
