INSTRUCTIONS
In a 4-cup glass measure or microwave-safe mixing bowl combine raisins, cranberries, apricots and brandy or water. Cover with microwave-safe plastic wrap; turn back a corner to vent. Micro-cook on high fr 2 minutes. (Our place fruit and brandy in a saucepan; bring to boiling. Remove from heat). Let stand 20 minutes. Drain. For crust, in a medium mixing bowl stir together 1 cup flour and 1/3 cup brown sugar. Cut in margarine or butter till mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press into an ungreased 8x8x2-inch baking pan. Bake at 350 about 20 minutes or till golden. For filling: In a medium mixing bowl beat eggs with an electric mixer on low speed for 4 minutes; stir in the 1 cup brown sugar, the 1/2 cup flour, and vanilla just till combined. Add drained fruit and nuts, stir to mix. Pour fruit mixture over baked crust; spread evenly. Bake about 40 minutes or till a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean, covering with foil the last 10 minutes to prevent overbrowning. Cool in the pan on a wire rack.
