Ingredients

dried apricots 125 g

orange juice 10 cl

butter (diced) 40 g

powdered sugar (reserve a little extra) 75 g

shredded coconut (lightly toasted) 90 g

glazed cherries (sliced) 2

Instructions

Soaking the dried apricots

Cut the dried apricots into small pieces and place them in a bowl. Pour in the orange juice and soak for about 1 hour, until the liquid is absorbed.

Creaming the butter

In another bowl, cream the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.

Mixing

Gradually add the dried apricots to the butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Add the toasted coconut.

Shaping

Line a small baking tray with parchment paper. Using a teaspoon, place the coconut mixture on the parchment and gently shape with your fingers into pyramid-shaped rocks.

Decorating

Place a small piece of glazed cherry on top of each mound, gently pressing it into the dough. Chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Dust with a little powdered sugar before serving.
