1 cup raisins, seedless
1/2 cup figs
1 cup almonds
1/2 cup cherries, dried
1 cup dates, pitted
1 cup walnuts
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar*
Grind fruits and nuts together in food mill. Mound mixture and then roll out on a flat surface to about 1/2 inch thickness. Sprinkle with powdered sugar* (optional) and cut into squares.
Makes 4 dozen
This recipe can be varied by the types of fruits added or taken away from the recipe. Fruits that could be substituted are dried prunes, pears, peaches, citron, candied orange peel, etc. If desired, fruit squares could be dipped in chocolate or carob.
*If you don't have a food mill, a food processor with a good blade will work just as well.

This sounds fascinating. I make a tea sandwich similar, but bind it with a little orange juice. I would like this.
