No Bake Graham Cracker Date Nut Roll Recipes

DEE DEE'S NO-BAKE ICEBOX FRUITCAKE AND NUT ROLL

Steps:

• 1. Combine cracker crumbs, cherries, nuts, coconut, raisins, and craisins; set aside. NOTE: This is my suggestion for the meat of this nut roll. You can change out fruits and nuts of your choice. I would NOT suggest peanuts. You may like candied fruit and dates in place of cherries, raisin and craisins that I added. Craisins were a complete and wonderful accident. I had every intention of using only raisins. I only had 1/2 lb of raisins in the house and a pound and 1/2 of craisins. The craisins were a wonderful addition to what I was attempting!
• 2. Meanwhile, in a 2-quart sauce pan, stirring constantly, heat milk and marshmallows together until marshmallows are melted; remove from heat and add bourbon. NOTE: I used a double boiler.
• 3. Pour milk mixture over dry mixture. Mix well with hands. NOTE: If mixture is too loose, add more cracker crumbs. If too dry, add more liquid; milk or juice. I would not add more bourbon.
• 4. Divide the mixture into 8 to 10 balls. Somewhat shape into logs. Wrap in plastic wrap and using hands continue to shape into tight logs. The size roll should be the size you would like to slice and serve as a cookie.
• 5. Tighten the plastic wrap and refrigerate for 24 hours. Slice and serve. Keep refrigerated.
• 6. NOTE: If you perfer loaf pans over a roll, spray 8 to 10 mini loaf pans with PAM and pack mixture in pans. NOTE: You can also roll these rolls in coconut flakes, powdered sugar or chopped nuts for a final touch. ENJOY!!
