Put fruit and nuts through a food chopper, alternating to help mix them. Or, chop very fine with a sharp knife. Clean knife blade often, as it gets sticky. Add the orange rind and juice. Knead with fingers to mix well. Pull off about 1 tablespoon at a time, roll into a ball, flatten slightly and roll in powdered sugar.
