Fruity nutty things

Invented these tonight in an effort to get younger child eating more fruit. Predictably she wouldn't touch them , but everyone else loved them! Quantities are pretty rough as I just chucked in a bit of this and a bit of that:
Into food processor put:
Handful of dried apricots
Half handful of currants
Two handfuls of Whole Earth cornflakes
Handful of cashew nuts
A couple of dried fruit bars that neither child would touch!(break into pieces first - bars not children)
Tablespoon of good quality lemon curd (I used Tesco Finest)
Enough ground almonds to make the whole lot into a stiff dough.
Roll/squeeze into small balls and roll in more ground almonds.
...no need to bake it, just eat straight away.
