Recipe - Mandulas Desszert (Almond Candy Dessert)

8 Squares (1 ounce each)
semisweet baking chocolate

Three fourths cup Blanched whole almonds

Store these chocolatealmond candies in a tightly covered box in a cool
place. Place each candy in a tiny fluted paper or foil cup to serve. This
is a delicious candy to offer guests after dinner.

In the top of a double boiler placed over gently boiling water, melt
chocolate. Stir in butter until melted. Keep chocolate mixture warm over
hot water. Cut each almond lengthwise into several pieces. In a small
skillet over low heat, combine almonds and sugar; toast, stirring, until
lightly browned. Add to melted chocolate mixture. Remove from heat and drop
chocolatealmond mixture by spoonfuls onto waxed paper. Let stand until
cooled and hardened.

Makes about 40 candies.
