Wrap dough in plastic and refrigerate at least 2 hours until firm enough to roll. Stir together coconut, jam and black walnuts. Set aside. On floured wax paper, roll dough to a 12-inch square. To roll, gently lift the waxed paper to guide the roll. Spread with jam mixture. Roll into spiral; press seam to seal. Wrap in plastic wrap; Refrigerate at least 4 hours so it`s firm for slicing.

    Icing for Sheet Cake

    1 stick margarine
    6 T. buttermilk

    Black Walnut Pie

    3 eggs, lightly beaten
    1 T. lemon juice
    1 cup light corn syrup
    1 tsp. vanilla
    1 cup dark brown sugar
    2 ½ cups Hammons Black Walnuts
    ¼ cup butter, melted
    1- 9 inch; pie crust

    Preheat oven to 350 degree. Check the pie crust to be sure the edges are at least ¼ inch to ½ inch above the rim of the pan to prevent the pie filling from bubbling over the edge. Gently combine all ingredients, in order listed. Stir enough to begin dissolving the sugar, but not enough to incorporate air into the filling. Do not beat, or the pie will have air bubbles on the top, instead of black walnuts, spoiling the glossy look of the glazed nuts. Pour into the unbaked pie crust. Bake on a cookie sheet one hour, or until the center of the pie is no longer loose and the black walnuts are browned. Serve either hot or cold, but for the best appearance, allow the pie to reach room temperature before cutting. Whipped cream or ice cream is a wonderful addition. For a gourmet treat, serve this pie hot

    Pinch of salt

    Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Put graham cracker crumbs and black walnuts into a medium sized bowl. Slowly add condensed milk and a pinch of salt. Mix with a wooden or plastic spoon. The batter will be very thick and gooey. Pack and press into a nonstick 8-inch square pan or 9 1/2-inch round pan.

    If you don`t have a nonstick pan, line bottom with parchment paper.
    Wet your hands with cold water and smooth top of mixture. Bake 25 or 30 minutes. Let it cool completely before cutting. Wrap any leftovers in plastic wrap. This will keep for weeks and flavor improves as it ages.
