My favorite fruits are apricots. When my wife Janis came across this recipe she realized it was a natural. It is a little tedious the first time but the second round is much easier after learning the technique. I’m sure you will enjoy these delicious home-made confections.

• 1 8-ounce package dried apricots, finely diced
• 2 1/2 cups flaked coconut

• 3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated milk)
• 2/3 cup finely chopped nuts

1. Finely dice apricots. Mix with coconut and milk.
2. Shape into 1-inch balls; roll each in nuts.
3. Let stand 2 hours, refrigerated, or until firm.
4. Store in tight fitting container in the refrigerator.
