Ingredients

1/3 c Dried apricots

1/4 c Butter, softened

1/8 c (6 tbsp) Sugar

1/2 c + 1/6 c (3 tbsp) Flour, divided

1/2 c Light brown sugar, packed

1 Egg

1/4 c Chopped almonds or walnuts

1/4 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp Vanilla

Pinch of Salt

Confectioners sugar

Directions

In a small saucepan, place apricots and cover with water.

Cook, covered, over low heat for 15 minutes.

Drain, and when apricots are cool enough to handle, chop finely. Set aside.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease 8 x 5-inch baking pan.

In a bowl, beat butter, sugar and 1/2 cup flour until well mixed and crumbly; pat into bottom of pan. Bake 20 minutes at 350°F or just until golden.

While batter is in oven, use the same bowl to mix all remaining ingredients (including apricots) except confectioners sugar.

Pour over baked layer and return to oven for 30 minutes.

Remove from oven; cool in pan before cutting in squares or bars with a sharp knife.

Dust with confectioners sugar.(Optional)
