Wonderful Candies

        
                                            These sweet candies can be made in two irresistible flavors.

Ingredients

1 cup butter, melted

1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk

3 pounds confectioners' sugar

COOKIES & CREME BONBONS:

1/2 cup cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookie crumbs

1 pound white candy coating, melted

CHOCOLATE-COVERED CHERRIES:

54 maraschino cherries (about two 10-ounce jars), patted dry
1 pound milk chocolate candy coating, melted

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine butter and milk. Gradually beat in confectioners’ sugar until a smooth dough is formed. Divide in half; cover with plastic wrap.
  2. For bonbons, stir cookie crumbs into one portion of dough. Shape into 1-in. balls. Dip into white candy coating; allow excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets. Chill until firm.
  3. For chocolate-covered cherries, shape remaining portion of dough into 1-in. balls; flatten to 2-in. circles. Wrap each circle around a cherry and gently reshape into a ball. Dip into milk chocolate coating; allow excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets. Chill until firm. Store in an airtight container. Yield:9 dozen.
