CHERRY-COCONUT SLICES
My mother got this recipe from a woman named Emmie Oddie, a well-known home economist in Canada who had a column in a farming newspaper. Oddie would test reader recipes in her own kitchen and write about it. These tasty sweets are so rich that you need only a small piece. -Judy Olson, Whitecourt, Alberta

[email protected]These cherry coconut slices are a waste of time and ingredients. The crust was dry and crumbly, and the filling was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

[email protected]These cherry coconut slices are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would probably reduce the amount of sugar in the filling next time. Otherwise, they're a good dessert.
