"While visions of sugar plums danced in their heads!" Here is the recipe!! My Mother loved these Victorian candies !!

Steps:
- 1. Grind candy ingredients in the food processor (or grinder if you have one for more authentic texture)
- 2. pull out spoonfuls and roll into balls
- 3. press a walnut half into each ball and roll in the granulated sugar, set aside on waxed paper to dry. May be placed in paper candy cups or stacked on a plate as you choose.
- 4. NOTE: The quantity depends on how large you make the balls. I recommend making them small, just large enough to grab hold of the walnut because these are very sweet and a truly unique flavor.
