The basis for your product will be almonds (1 cup). From this amount of ingredients you will get about 60-80 pieces of excellent sweets.
First of all, you need to grind the butter with a blender or ordinary fork. Pour cream or condensed milk into this mass (sometimes some housewives add a little honey, but this is not for everyone). Put all this in a saucepan on a steam bath or in the microwave for 30 seconds. Remember that if you are steaming, then this mass must be stirred all the time until the oil is completely dissolved. If you cook in the microwave, then mix everything well beforehand until smooth. Add vanilla sugar or cognac and 70% coconut. Put the resulting mixture in the refrigerator until completely solidified. The mass should thicken well and be dense and uniform. Preliminarily, at the very beginning of cooking, soak the almonds for an hour in water and remove the peel from it. Then lightly fry the almonds in a dry frying pan. From the frozen mass, start making candies, for this, simply roll small balls, into which one by one tonsil is thrust, and roll a little more so that there are no holes in the candy. Then roll the resulting balls in coconut flakes. Your sweets are ready. They can be served on the table.
