COCONUT & CHERRY
This was an easy to make and easy to eat biscuit. The coconut makes them hard to stop at one and I put half a cherry on top instead of a quarter. I think it made them look more visually appealing. The recipe this week was my husband’s choice. He loves a Cherry Ripe andContinue reading “COCONUT & CHERRY”
