Sometimes you wish all these "limited editions" of famous brands would go away.
Sometimes you don’t.
I’ve been a big fan of the Mounds bar for years- growing up, it was one of my mom’s favorites, so it was thankfully in the house from time to time. Dark chocolate. Sweetened coconut. Simple- and perfect in my book.
Throw in almonds and the bar is extra special, one would think. But no- Peter Paul just had to make Almond Joy milk chocolate. You had me and you lost me, Pete- if that is your real name.
So not only did Peter Paul make things right (if only for a limited time) when the introduced the Chocolate Chocolate Almond Joy, they did it one better. They made the coconut chocolate too.
Dear reader, this candy bar is sensational. The idea of chocolate coconut, dark chocolate and almonds (lightly coated in chocolate. per the Almond Joy tradition) is my idea of candy bar bliss. This combination is not for everyone, but I’m in confectionary heaven- even if, indeed, it’s only for a limited time.
