COCONUT CHERRY CANDY 
4 c. nuts (chopped)
1 c. maraschino cherries (cut in fourths)
1 tsp. vanilla
2 boxes powdered sugar
2 c. coconut
1/4 lb. butter (melted)
1 can Eagle Brand milk

Stir this all together and form into balls about the size of chocolate cherries and lay on a buttered plate or waxed paper and let them chill in the refrigerator overnight.

Then dip into this:

Melt in double boiler:

2 pkgs. (12 oz.) chocolate chips (24 oz.)
1/2 c. paraffin (1 square)

Take a toothpick and stick into the ball and then dip in chocolate. This makes a very large batch of candy. Can be divided in half. Also cherries can be omitted if desired.
