1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 cups flaked coconut
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup red decorator sugar
1/4 cup green decorator sugar
2 ounces slivered almonds
Blend together the gelatin and condensed milk. Add coconut and vanilla; mix well and refrigerate until chilled.
Roll into small balls and shape into strawberries; roll in red sugar crystals. Dip fat end into green sugar crystals. Place an almond sliver into the fat end for a stem.
