VALENTINE "STRAWBERRIES"

Steps:

• Break wafers and cookies into the medium size pieces to fit into the blender. Pulse a few times till the crumbs are uniform. Transfer mixture to the bowl and add the sour cream. Add rum or your favorite liquor for an adult version.
• Take 1 table spoon of mixture, warm it up in your hands like you would a play-dough and shape it into a strawberry or just make a ball.
• Arrange 3 bowls: one with the beet juice, one with the sugar and last with the poppy seeds. Then dip into the beet juice to get that nice bright color and drench into sugar and poppy seeds mixtures.
