      Title: APRICOT BARS
 Categories: Bakery, Desserts, Cookies, Low-fat
      Yield: 18 Bars
 
      1 c  White flour
    1/3 c  Brown sugar
      1 ts Cinnamon
    1/2 ts Baking powder
    1/4 ts Salt
  1 1/2 c  Dried apricots
      1 tb Walnuts, chopped
      1 tb Cashews, chopped
    1/3 c  Maple syrup

MMMMM---------------------------ICING--------------------------------
      1 c  Icing sugar
      2 tb Shortening
    1/2 ts Vanilla
      1 tb Apple juice
 
  Sift together flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder & salt. Stir in
  the apricots & nuts.  Add the syrup. Stir until the mixture forms a
  thick batter.
  
  Spread the batter into a lightly oiled 8" X 8" baking pan (it is hard
  work, but it will cover -- trust me!). Bake at 350F for 30 to 35
  minutes or until the bars test done. Allow to cool slightly, cut into
  bars. When completely cool, spread with icing & drizzle some melted
  chocolate over the top if desired.
  
  ICING: Cream together sugar & shortening.  Add remaining ingredients
  & beat until smooth.  Makes 1/2 cup.
