Let's whip it up

Reserve 1 strawberry for later use. Cut each of the remaining strawberries into 5 slices each.

Spoon preserves onto wafers, adding about 1/4 tsp. preserves to each wafer.

Place 11 wafers, with preserves sides up and sides touching, in single layer on serving plate, spreading small amount of the whipped topping onto bottom of each topped wafer before placing it on the plate. Top each wafer on plate with about 1 tsp. of the remaining whipped topping and 1 strawberry slice.

Repeat layers of wafers, whipped topping and strawberries, starting with 8 wafers for the second layer, 6 wafers for the third layer, 3 wafers for the fourth layer, and 2 wafers for the last layer to resemble a Christmas tree.

Place remaining wafer on top of tree; top with about 2 tsp. of the remaining whipped topping, then reserved strawberry, placed upside down. Sprinkle with powdered sugar to resemble snow. Garnish with small pieces of rosemary.
