    List of Ingredients




    1/2 cup finely chopped pitted dates
    1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts
    1/4 cup finely chopped dried apricots
    1/4 cup finely chopped dried figs
    1/4 cup finely chopped pistachio nuts
    2 tablespoons brandy
    1 tablespoon apricot preserves
    1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
    1/3 cup sugar

    Recipe



    Line a small baking sheet with waxed paper. In a food processor, combine the dates, walnuts, apricots, figs, pistachios, brandy, apricot preserves, cinnamon and cloves. Pulse until the mixture begins to clump together. Using a teaspoon, scoop up a rounded spoonful of the mixture, press together, and roll between your palms into a compact ball. Roll the round in the sugar. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining fruit-and-nut mixture and sugar. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Makes about 18 confections.
