Ingredients
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Form the mixture into strawberry shapes.
- Roll the shaped cookies in remaining Jell-O (1/2 package).
- Make leaves of powdered sugar frosting, tinted green.
- Use finely ground coconut to enhance the appearance of the strawberries.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider adding a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness. If you prefer a nut-free version, replace the blanched almonds with sunflower seeds or omit them entirely. You can also use a different flavor of Jell-O if strawberries aren’t in season. If the mixture is too sticky, add a bit more ground coconut to make it easier to shape.
