    2/3 c  Dried apricots; packed
      1    Stick butter (1/2c)
    1/4 c  Sugar
  1 1/3 c  Flour
    1/2 ts Baking powder

  Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Put apricots in a small pan, cover
  with water and boil gently for 10 minutes. Drain off water, cool and
  cut into small pieces. Mix the butter, sugar, and 1 cup of the flour
  together with a pastry blender until crumbly.  Press into a greased
  9-by-9-inch baking pan. Bake for about 25 minutes or until lightly
  browned. Sift together the remaining 1/3 cup flour, baking powder and
  salt. In a large bowl, beat together the brown sugar and eggs until
  light. Stir in vanilla, the flour mixture, apricots and nuts. Spread
  over the baked base. Bake for about 30 minutes or until set and
  browned. Cool, then cut into bars. Wrap and freeze. Provise a small
  bag of confectioner's sugar to sprinkle on when ready to serve.
