Candied Stawberries*

By

I got this recipe from Lois Burke

Ingredients

  • 1 cup coconut
  • 1 cup ground nuts
  • 1 (6 oz) package strawberry gelatin
  • 3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • Red sugar crystals
  • Slivers of almonds, tinted green

Preparation

Step 1

Mix ingredients thoroughly.
Chill one hour.
Shape into strawberry fashion.
Roll in red sugar crystals.
Insert tinted almonds for stems.
Almonds are tinted by placing them in a jar and shaking with a few drops of green food coloring.
You can skip the almonds and just dip the stem end of strawberry in green crystals.
