Ingredients
NEW: You can now switch to Cook Mode to keep your screen awake.
Directions
- Pulse the slivered almonds, dates, prunes and apricots in a food processor, stopping and scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed, until the mixture is evenly and finely chopped, about 10 pulses.
- Add the honey, cinnamon, fennel, vanilla, cardamom, nutmeg and salt and pulse until evenly combined. The mixture should just start to come together into a ball.
- Scoop tablespoon-size balls and roll between the palms of your hands until smooth. There should be about 20 balls. Add the sugar to a small bowl and roll the sugar plums in it until evenly coated. Serve immediately. Alternatively, roll the sugar plums into balls, then refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 week. Roll in sugar right before serving.
