Fruit and Nut Treats

These are great for an energy boost and loaded with good stuff.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup each:

Almonds
Pecans
Coconut
Dates
Dried Apricots
Dried Cranberries
Honey

Chop the nuts and fruit coarsely and combine well.
Pour the honey over all of it and mix well.
Form into balls and roll in finely grated coconut.

Makes about 26 1 1/4" balls.

You can substitute whatever you like for both the nuts and fruit.  Just keep the ratio of nuts to fruit the same, and the ratio of dry ingredients to honey the same, and you're good to go.

Possible substitutions:
Hazelnuts
Walnuts
Dried:
Raisins
Mango
Papaya
Pineapple
Cherries
