Almond Joy Patties
adapted from Martha Stewart.com
These delicious no-bake cookies can be assembled quickly and then stored in the refrigerator.
Makes about 20 .
1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
3 drops pure almond extract
3/4 cup sliced almonds
5 ounces semisweet chocolate, melted

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper, and spread coconut and almonds in a single layer on parchment. Place in oven until golden and toasted, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to color evenly. Remove from oven; let cool completely.
2. In a medium bowl, combine toasted coconut/almond mixture, almond extract, and melted chocolate. Stir gently until combined. Press about 1 tablespoon coconut mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining mixture. Place in the refrigerator until cookies are set, about 20 minutes. Keep in refrigerator until ready to serve.
