DIRECTIONS: In saucepan, mix sugar, molasses, hot
water, butter and salt. Stir over low heat until a
small amount of the mixture forms a soft ball when
dropped in cold water (240-F). Remove from heat; add
chocolate; do not stir. Cool to 150 F, and stir until
chocolate is well blended. Add 2 cups nuts and
coconut. Pour into buttered 8x8x2" pan, and press in
1/2 cup nuts. Let stand in cool place several hours
before cutting in squares.
