24 Servings
Prep: 25 min. Cook: 5 min. + cooling
Ingredients
1 package (8 ounces) chopped dates
1/2 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 egg, lightly beaten
Dash salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups rice cereal
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Red colored sugar
Green candied cherries
or
green confectioners' icing
Directions
In a large skillet, combine the dates, coconut, sugar, butter, egg
and salt. Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture thickens and
reaches 160° or is thick enough to coat the back of a metal
spoon, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in vanilla,
cereal and walnuts. Cool for 10 minutes.
With slightly moistened fingers, shape tablespoonfuls into strawberry
shapes; roll in red sugar. Place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets.
Decorate tops with pieces of green candied cherries or pipe leaves
on strawberry tops with green icing. Yield: about 4 dozen.
