Judy Ruppel, Oak Ridge, Missouri, is looking for a recipe for a coconut candy her mother used to make for Christmas. The candy was creamy white with coconut, and it was almost like vanilla fudge, she says. Shona Frese, Norway, Iowa, sends a recipe for White Coconut Fudge that might fit Judy’s request.
