a variation of my jelly cookie that I stumbled upon by accident. I liked the orange, white and green effect. It reminded me of the Irish flag. Ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar free apricot jam |
1/4 cup cream cheese |
2 rolled pie crusts |
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut |
5 drops green food coloring |
1 tablespoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. roll out one pie crust on cookie sheet or pizza stone. 2. Spread orange colored sugar free jelly on unrolled crust. 3. On another cookie sheet or pizza stone, unroll second pie crust. 4. spread cream cheese over this second crust. 5. carefully put second crust, cream cheese side down on top of jelly side of first crust. 6. In another bowl, soak unsweetened coconut in vanilla and food coloring. 7. Once green enough for you, sprinkle on top of pie crust. (I also sprinkle the leftover food coloring/vanilla liquid as well). 8. using a pizza cutter cut the cookie into 1 inch squares before baking. 9. Bake cookie according to pie crust directions. (Until edges are slightly brown). 10. NOTE: Measurements are not exact. Feel free to use less or more. |
