Hi,
I grew up in Florissant, Missouri in the 1970s. Our local IGA store was the
place we road our bikes to most often. They had a bakery there that was pretty
good, and my favorite thing there was something called Fruit Rocks. I think
they were like three for a quarter or something like that. They were big, the
size of my kid fist, covered in powdered sugar. But not a cookie. Almost
spherical, like a...well, like a good-size rock. They were heavy, dense and
moist inside, wight fruit (I think like cherries and raisins), nuts of some
kind. They were delicious, and I can't find a recipe to save my life.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
John
Hi John,
Sorry, I can't find anything at all about these. IGA has a website here: My IGA
You might try writing to them.
I'll post this for reader input.
