Preparation Time: 5 minutes

Servings: 30 pieces about 1/2 inch thick

16 oz Coconut Cream Concentrate
1/4 to 1/3 cup raw honey (or to taste)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2/3 cup raw or toasted walnuts (chopped)

Slightly warm the coconut cream concentrate over a bowl or pan of hot water until it can be stirred.

Stir in the honey, vanilla and chopped nuts into the coconut cream concentrate until well mixed.

Before it hardens, shape mixture into rolls and wrap in waxed paper. Let harden in the refrigerator and slice into rounds to eat as candy once firm. Store in refrigerator or at room temperature if below 75 degrees.

I made a half batch of this recipe and as you can see by the picture it turned out great! The candy is very rich and creamy so you may not be able to eat more then one or two. :)

I did a variation on these by making a chocolate glaze and dipping the half of each candy round into it. The creamy flavor of the coconut and vanilla with the chocolate is a great combination!

Could you substitute pecans for the walnuts? we are not big walnut eaters but love pecans!

Delicious, but i had a little trouble with consistency. it was too runny, it wouldn't form into a roll. i was able to harden in the refrigerator. Any ideas on why so runny?

What about with chopped toasted almonds and partially dipped in chocolate??? Mmmm!

Sharon: You can use any nut you want, it doesn't matter.

Gail: I'd love to help, I need to know more about how you made it, it's pretty much impossible to know without any details. Was the Coconut Cream Concentrate hard when you measured it out? Was it runny? Soft like peanut butter? Did you change anything, added other ingredients? Were any of the ingredients cold or in the refrigerator? Things like that.

Can you substitute regular honey for Raw honey ?

Angelique: Yes, you can but the raw honey from Tropical Traditions is best. :)
