- 1 cup raisins
- 1 cup bite-size pitted prunes
- 1 cup dates
- 1 cup currants
- 1 cup candied cherries, dried cherries, or dried cranberries
- 1 cup walnuts
- 1/2 to 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar

Using a meat grinder or a food processor, grind the fruit and nuts and mix well. Work into the mixture as much confectioners' sugar as it takes to form 1-inch balls. Roll in granulated sugar, then place on a rack to dry for 24 hours.
