You can’t go wrong with these soft, chewy almond joy cookies full of chocolate, coconut, and almond flavors! YUM!
I’m assuming you’re familiar with the Almond Joy candy bar! If not, it’s a delicious bar with a sweet coconut base, topped with almonds, and then covered in chocolate. Yum! It’s one of my favorites! But, candy bars aren’t really something you serve for dessert…or take to a cookie exchange…or bake at the holidays! So, these cookies give you all the yummy Almond Joy flavors in a homemade dessert form!! 
The great thing about these is that they are super easy to make! If you need a tasty dessert in a hurry, these cookies are it as you actually use cake mix for the base! Cheating a little perhaps. But, that’s ok! Sometimes easy (and tasty) wins!! 
Here’s the recipe:
