     I first made these a few years ago when a holiday cookie experiment failed spectacularly, leaving me with about a cup of this spiced fruit filling. I had a log of nut crescent dough in the freezer, so I put the two together to make these cookies.  Family and friends unanimously hailed these as a keeper. Use walnuts or pistachios instead of pecans, if you like. You can also substitute dried apricots for either the cherries or the figs.  Cheers.  ;o)
