Post subject:  looking for an old recipe for Fruit Medley Squares

:cry: I used to have this recipe, it contains dried mixed fruit tidbits. There is a crust that gets baked and then the fruit and whatever else goes into it, gets poured on top and gets baked again. These are so good, and my daughter loves them and wants the recipe. Unfortunatly, I moved twice in less than 3 months and durring that time I lost the recipe....Please Help me :?:

    I don't have exactly what you are looking for but here is something very similar and absolutely delicious.

    FRUIT TARTLETS A LA JOE

    1 cup of flour
    1/2 stick of unsalted butter
    1 cup of meusli (your favorite)
    3 tbsp of orange juice

    CUSTARD

    1 cup milk
    2 tbsp honey
    1 tbsp custard powder

    TOPPING

    1 1/2 cups mixed dried fruit
    2 tbsp apricot jam

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
    Combine flour and butter in a food processor
    Add the meusli and sufficient orange juice to make a soft dough
    Roll pastry out on a lightly floured board until about 1/4" thick
    Cut out approx 4" circles and ease into a greased muffin tin
    Using a fork make holes on the bottom of each tartlet
    Put in fridge for 15 minutes
    Bake in oven for 20 minutes until golden
    Allow to cool on wire rack
    In a small saucepan,blend the milk,honey and custard powder until smooth
    Bring to a boil,lower heat and simmer for 3 minutes stirring constantly until thickened
    Remove from heat and cover with plastic wrap
    When cool,spoon into the tartlets and then sprinkle the dried fruit over the custard
    Heat the jam until runny and spoon or brush over each tartlet.
    Store in an airtight container.
    ENJOY
