You can use either almonds or possibly walnuts in this recipe-each gives a very different flavor.
In a small saucepan, place apricots and cover with water. Cook, covered, over low heat for 15 min. Drain, and when apricots are cold sufficient to handle, chop finely. Set aside.
Preheat oven to 350 . Grease 8 x 8-inch baking pan. In a large bowl, beat butter, sugar and 1 c. flour till well mixed and crumbly; pat into bottom of pan. Bake 20 min at 350 or possibly just till golden brown.
While batter is in oven, use the same bowl to mix all other ingredients (including apricots) except confectioners sugar. Pour over baked layer and return to oven for 25 min.
Remove from oven; cold in pan before cutting in squares or possibly oblongs with a sharp knife. Dust with confectioners sugar.
Yield: 16-20 squares or possibly oblongs. Martina Boudreau, St. Louis, MO
