Vegetarian fruit and nut candies
Description
Making candies at home is easier than it seems. It's like a little miracle right in your kitchen. First, soak the dried fruits in warm water, then drain the water, add whiskey, and grind the mixture through a meat grinder. Finely chop part of the nuts. Using spoons, shape the fruit mixture into candies, placing a nut kernel in the center of each. Roll each candy in the nut crumbs. Then, before serving, chill the candies in the refrigerator for an hour.
