Chocolate Coconut Candies Amount Ingredient 3/4 cup mashed potatoes 16 ounce package confectioners' sugar 4 cups flaked coconut 1 teaspoon almond extract Chocolate Coating:   2 tablespoons soft butter or margarine 2 tablespoons corn syrup 3 tablespoons water 1 package Betty Crocker chocolate fudge frosting mix

Preparation Instructions:

Mix all ingredients except Chocolate Coating. Drop mixture by heaping teaspoonfuls onto waxed paper. Roll into balls; chill 1/2 to 1 hour or until firm. If mixture is too soft to form balls, chill before shaping.

*If instant mashed potatoes are used, prepare as directed on package for 2 servings; measure 3/4 cup.

Chocolate Coating: In top of double boiler, mix butter, corn syrup and water. Stir in frosting mix (dry) until smooth. Heat over rapidly boiling water 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
