Holiday Fruit Bars - cooking recipe

Ingredients

16 graham crackers
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
2 Tbsp. raisins
1/2 lb. mixed fruit, peeled
1 c. walnuts (optional)
3 eggs, well beaten
1 c. brown sugar

Preparation

Roll crackers into fine crumbs.
Mix with salt and baking powder.
Add fruit and nuts.
Beat eggs and sugar; add the 2 mixtures together.
Blend thoroughly.
Spread into a 7 x 11-inch well greased shallow pan.
Bake 20 to 25 minutes; cut into bars. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
These will keep weeks in a tightly covered can.
I always put a teaspoon of rum flavoring in mix.
