Strawberry Cookies (No-Bake Date Nut Cookie)

1. 1

   In a large saucepan, melt butter.

2. 2

   Add slightly beaten egg, sugar, coconut, dates and salt.

3. 3

   Cook, stirring constantly, until thick.

4. 4

   Remove from heat and add vanilla.

5. 5

   Add cereal and nuts.

6. 6

   Cool slightly.

7. 7

   Butter hands and roll a heaping teaspoon into a ball and then add a point to make it into the shape of a strawberry.

8. 8

   Immediately roll in red sugar and place on waxed paper (kids can help with this step since the faster you roll them in sugar, the better).

9. 9

   When all the cookies are made, add green icing stems (I use decorator tip #349).

10. 10

    When stems are firm to the touch, place in candy papers and store in an airtight container.
