1 cup light cream |
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 lb dates, chopped |
1 lb fig, chopped |
1 lb dark raisin |
1 lb unsweetened coconut, finely flaked |
2 cups walnuts, chopped |
Directions:
1. Cook the sugar, cream & butter to a soft ball. .
2. Add vanilla & beat until creamy, then stir in the rest of the ingredients.
3. When well combined, form the mixture into a loaf.
4. Wrap the loaf in damp cheese cloth, then in wax paper & put in the refrigerator to ripen for at least 2 weeks.
