Apricot-Coconut Cookie Bars

If you enjoy gooey delicious fruit bars, this recipe is for you. I’ve added ground oats to the pastry, which gives it a slightly heartier consistency, mixed in apricot preserves with the chopped apricots to spread on top of the baked pastry, and added sliced almonds to the coconut mixture to give the bars a little crunch. To make these bars just a little more special, I’ve topped them with drizzled white chocolate, diced apricots, and chopped sliced almonds. Your family and friends won’t be able to resist!

Frosted Strawberries

Creating frosted strawberries was a first for me. I found the mixture to be pretty wet and was wondering how I was going to form strawberries out of it.  I took a scoop of the mixture and rolled it into the extra strawberry gelatin, this firmed it up enough to form a strawberry. Using different-sized scoops, helped to make different size strawberries; some were more successful than others. To display the frosted strawberries, I made a lemon layer cake and used the strawberries as decoration.
