Almond Joy Dessert Cups

This started out as," Almond Joy Bark" however, the coconut filling never set.  The filling was way to amazing to throw out so, I scooped the filling into individual cups and topped with broken up pieces of chocolate.  Originally, I added the filling into a 9x9 baking dish lined with wax paper and topped with melted chocolate chips and slivered almonds.  To make it easier I would just add the filling to individual cups/mason jars and top with chocolate. 
 
Ingredients for Coconut Filling:
  • 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
Ingredients for Chocolate Almond Topping:
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup slivered almonds
Directions:  In a large bowl mix all coconut filling ingredients until well blended and creamy.   Add filling into individual cups/jars of your choice and set aside.  Add chocolate chips into a microwaveable bowl and nuke for 1 minute at 1/2 heat, one minute at a time until creamy.  Pour chocolate over filling in each cup and sprinkle with almonds.  Refrigerate for 1-2 hours before serving.
