My Mom’s Bon-Bons

2# Powdered Sugar
1/2# Butter
1/2 tsp Vanilla
Dash of Salt
1 large package of Angel Flake Coconut
1 can Eagle Brand Sweetened Milk
Cherries
1 large package Chocolate Chips

Combine powdered sugar, butter, vanilla, salt, coconut and sweetened milk. Mix well. Note: This is too heavy for a mixer. Roll into ball formation with a cherry in the middle and chill.

Melt Chocolate Chips. Dip chilled balls into mixture and refrigerate.

My notes: I used frozen sweet cherries. The next time I make this I will cut the cherries in quarters and mix the cherry pieces into the coconut mixture. It is just too labor intensive to wrap the coconut mixture around a cherry and the resulting cookie is just too large.
