  Categories: Candies
       Yield: 1 Servings
  
            -HGKS65A
       1 lb Raisins
       8 oz Dry figs
       8 oz Dates, pitted
       1 c  Dry prunes, stones removed
       1    Orange, juiced
            Rind of 1 orange
       1 c  English walnuts, broken
  
      Grind together the fruits and rind of orange.
    Blend thoroughly with orange juice and walnut meats.
    Shape into balls or flat bars.  These candies should be allowed to stand
   for 24 hours in order to "ripen". Descendants of the pioneers have found
   that dipping these fruit candies in milk chocolate makes them exceptionally
   tasty, as well as healthful.
   
   From an old loose-leaf cookbook compiled by ladies in Malad, Idaho and
   handed down to Kay from her maternal grandmother, Blodwyn Thorpe.
