Trying to find a recipe most likely from the 50's. dried fruit/not candied and nuts

Thank you very much for both comments. I will search by decade per Nancy's suggestion and the ratio's by Lori T sound reasonably close to what she did. She didn't use figs that I recall. Almost 20 years ago, she wrote this recipe out for me and I have lost it or put it in a "really safe" hiding place.

There are websites of recipes by decade. Maybe one for the 50s will have your candy.

My grandmother made something that sounds similar. It calls for one pound each of raisins, dates, figs, apricots, coconut, and "nuts", which was usually either walnuts or pecans. Everything got ground up in the old hand-cranked meat grinder, smooshed together with a splash of vanilla and moistened with water or juice if needed. However, it would be rolled into logs and chilled before slicing. I suppose it could be pressed into a pan and then cut into squares. We just called it dried fruit roll. Is this what you are thinking of?
