Ingredients
- Cinnamon 1 ts
- Cocoa powder 2 oz
- Dried figs 1/2 lb
- fluid ounces water 4
- Granulated sugar 1/2 lb
- Ground almonds 1/2 lb
- Grated rind of 1 lemon
Directions
- Mince the figs finely or put them through a food processor. Assemble
- all the rest of the dry ingredients, except for the sugar, in a
- mixing bowl. Combine the sugar and water in a heavy saucepan. Bring
- to the boil, stirring only until the sugar is dissolved. Then boil
- without stirring for a minute or two, *just* until it has thickened
- and is slightly reduced. Remove from the heat and beat in the
- remaining ingredients. The mixture will be very stiff. Return to
- the heat and cook gently until it is slightly shiny and comes away
- from the sides and bottom of the pan in a mass. This only takes a
- few minutes. Pat into an 8-inch cake tin or shallow dish. Allow it
- to cool, then cut into small squares and sprinkle with granulated
- sugar.
