8 oz Maple sugar, grated

      6 oz Water

      4 oz Hazelnuts, broken

      3 oz Walnuts

     14 oz Dried prunes

  Place maple sugar & water in a pot.  Heat slowly without stirring.
  Take off the heat, drop the walnuts into this hot syrup then stir to
  ensure that all parts are equally coated.  Add the hazelnuts & prunes
  alternately & stir well.
  Using a slotted spoon, remove the fruits & nuts from the syrup &
  allow to cool.  Any leftover syrup can be eaten with bannock.
