1. Preheat oven to 320°F and line a 9" square pan with parchment. 2. Stir sugar, honey, butter, Tootsie Rolls, chocolate and mincemeat in a pan over low heat for 3-5 minutes until sugar dissolves. 3. Sift flour, ground almonds, cocoa and spices into a large bowl. 4. Add zest, nuts, figs, apricots, salt and mince mixture. 5. Stir to combine well – it will be quite stiff. 6. Press into the prepared pan (I like placing a piece of parchment or cling wrap on the surface and using a second pan to press it evenly). 7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until firm and dull-looking on top. 8. Cool in pan, then invert onto a board and dust with icing sugar. 9. Cut into 36 pieces. 10. Wrap well in plastic and age at room temperature for 1 day, then transfer to an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 month. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
