Ancient Egyptian

Figs, dates, pomegranates and grapes were the only fruits that could be grown in the hot climate. From: Ancient Egyptian Food and Drink. This recipe was from 1600BC and was found on an ostraca. *NOTE* There are no times given but I'm thinking it would go pretty quickly with the food processor.

I'm not a huge fan of dates, but I really enjoyed this candy. The sweetness of the dates is balanced out by the nuts and spices.
