Fruit Candy Squares

Ingredients:
1 cup ground dried apricots or peaches
1 cup whole seedless raisins
1 cup ground dried figs or pitted dates
1/2 cup pure maple syrup or honey
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1/2 cup shredded coconut*, if desired

Directions:
Do not use tough or over-dry fruit. If too dry, "revive". Grind on coarse blade (leave raisins whole). Press firmly into cup when measuring.

Mix ingredients thoroughly.

Place in double boiler with syrup or honey.

Warm gently until soft, mixing well.

Pour into greased pan or on to waxed paper to harden.

If too soft, add more fruit.

Chill. Cut into squares and dust with coconut.
