INSTRUCTIONS
"You can add sesame and sunflower seeds and coconut to these (to imitate
Nature Classics from Confectionately Yours). I found refrigerating them
made them easier to cut."
Combine dates, almonds, apricots and orange rind, set aside. In large,
heavy saucepan over low heat, melt butter. Stir in corn syrup and sugar.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly intil sugar is dissloved and
mixture comes to a full boil. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla. Add cereal
and fruit-nut mixture, stirring till evenly coated. Press mixture firmly
into greased 9 inch square pan. When partially cool, cut into bars. Cool
completely. MAKES 16 to 24 BARS (Butter can be meltred by microwaving at
High 30-60 seconds, stir in syrup and sugar, microwave at High for 2 to 3
minutes or till sugar is dissolved, stirring 3 times. Continue as above.)
