How to Make Peanut Butter/Mounds candy
- In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar, butter, cream cheese, and vanilla. Divide the batter in half and place each half of the batter in a bowl of it's own. Stir peanut butter into one bowl of batter and the coconut into the other.
- Using your hands mold the dough into a ball or squars ( or mold of you choice ) and arrange on a baking sheet. Place in the freezer until harden.
- When the candy has set, melt the chocolate chips and shortening in the top of a double boiler. Dip the candy into the chocolate until covered. Place the candy on waxed paper and return to the freezer to harden. After the chocolate has hardened the candy can be kept in the refrigerator until used.
