  13. I'm crazy about Martha Washingtons. My aunt always made them every Christmas. I used to think they were called Georgia Washington Balls. Yours look delicious. I'd like to invite you to share your recipe on Sweet Indulgences Sunday.

  15. Good Morning Deana,

    This is the first time I've been to your blog. Thanks for sharing on The Shabby Creek Cottage!

    Just thoght you'd be interested in hearing that I've been making these since 1972 and they have been a Christmas tradition at our home every year since! I did not know that they are called "Martha Washington's" as we have only known then as Coconut Bonbons. I recently REnamed them "Campagne Maison Bonbons" to honor their tradition at our home.

    My recipe varies a little from yours, as I use a stick of paraffin wax with a 14 oz bag of milk chocolate chips as my chocolate dip mixture. I usually make the filling mixture, chill it over night, make the balls and freeze them before dipping. This sets the coating instantly! My recipe makes around 110 balls.

    Our 42 y/o son called the other day and asked if I would "teach" his fiance how to make these while they are visiting for Christmas at the farmhouse this coming weekend. He was elated to hear that I had just finished a batch for him!

    They are very easy to make and I've never had any to fail! Thanks for sharing your recipe with us today.

    Have a wonderful week!
