    It wouldn't work for me; I don't do coconut. OTOH, I could try it with other gluten free flours. We'll probably stick with the canned cinnamon rolls for camping; the pantry space is limited so we don't carry a lot
    of "from scratch" ingredients.

    flours should work. Do you have an allergy or an aversion to coconut?

    Either way my Almond Joy and/or Mounds bars would be safe in your
    vicinity. Bv)=

    To make this Ruth friendly you could substitute Tahini or a nut (not
    peanut) butter or vegan butter for the coconut butter.

    Title: 3 Ingredient Almond Joy Fat Bombs
    Categories: Five, Chocolate, Nuts, Lo-Carb
    Yield: 24 candies

    20 oz Chocolate chips of choice;
    - divided
    1/4 c Coconut butter; softened
    24 Whole almonds

    Line a 24-count mini muffin pan (or 12 standard sized
    muffin pan) with muffin liners and set aside.

    In a microwave-safe bowl or stovetop, melt 3/4 of your
    chocolate chips of choice. Divide the chocolate mixture
    evenly amongst the muffin pan, scraping the sides to
    ensure they are coated with chocolate. Refrigerate until
    firm.

    When the chocolate has firmed up, evenly distribute the
    softened coconut butter in each of the chocolate cups,
    reserving room to top with chocolate. Feel free to add
    more coconut butter if desired.

    Melt the remaining chocolate chips and top each of the
    chocolate coconut cups with the melted chocolate. Top
    each one with an almond and refrigerate until firm.

    NOTES: Should be kept refrigerated but can keep at room
    temperature, in a sealed container. They are also
    freezer friendly.

    Hi Dave,

    It wouldn't work for me; I don't do coconut. OTOH, I could try it with other gluten free flours. We'll probably stick with the canned cinnamon rolls for camping; the pantry space is limited so we don't carry a lot
    of "from scratch" ingredients.

    As I said "as much for Denis and Shawn as for you. Bv)=" Other G.F. flours should work. Do you have an allergy or an aversion to coconut?

    Just an aversion, but not as strong a one as the one I have to peanut
    butter. (G)


    Either way my Almond Joy and/or Mounds bars would be safe in your vicinity. Bv)=

    Yes, those are safe. OTOH, a Milky Way or 3 Musketeers bar is in danger.

    Almonds aren't my favorite nut so if I wanted to make it, I might sub in cashews instead. Overall, I prefer to eat nuts by themselves, not mixed
    in with my candy.
