Candy Bon-Bons

Mother loved to make LOTS of candy each Christmas. Bon-Bons was one of my favorites. I have made these a few times and they really aren't too hard to  make, just a little time consuming (and a strong arm is needed to get it all mixed together).

Bon-Bons:

Mix: 1 stick margarine, 1 can Eagle Brand milk, 2 boxes powdered sugar, 3 cups chopped pecans, 1 can Angel Flake coconut (or 1 cup).

Form into balls and refrigerate overnight.

Dip In: 1/4 pound paraffin wax melted with 12 oz. package of Nestle's Chocolate Chips. (It is best to keep this pan over a pan of simmering water.) Place on wax paper until chocolate is set.
