Heat group 1 until warm enough to melt all, but still can bear to put a
finger in it. Use non-reactive pan, it fizzes!
Mix spices group together.
Coarse ground together all nuts and fruits.
Use a large pan for mixing. Sift flour and spices together, add sugar.
Add nuts and fruits then get hands into it to mix all together. Add
liquid mixture and mix to a stiff dough. I try to get it to the sticky
stage, then add more flour while rolling it out. Let dough sit overnight
in a cool place or fridge.
Preheat over to 350. Grease cookie sheets before each baking. Roll
dough to about 3/8 inch, bake 8-15 minutes or until done. (recipe
says both times!) Shift pans between low to high racks midway
through. Recipe makes 60 dozen cookies. After baking, store in air
tight container for 3-4 weeks before icing.
Boil icing ingredients until make soft ball stage. Pour syrup over

and top with pecans. This recipe ices 13 dozen cookies.
