No. More. Cookies.

Berry Pavlova

To break up the decadence that is christmas cookies, I made a pavlova one night, using this recipe with the addition of ~1/3c unsweetened coconut at the end. Thinned a little apricot jam by warming it in the microwave, then piled it high with blueberries, blackberries and pomegranate arils. I was on cloud 9 ;-) hehe!


More on how I get my arils in the next post...

  9. From your title, I assumed this would be a savory recipe. . . but sweets at the holidays=always welcome! :) Love pomegranate--can't wait to see what else you have to say about it.
