Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the raisins, dates and liqueur. Set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- In a large bowl, beat together the butter or margarine, the two sugars, the whole egg, the egg white and the vanilla extract until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, orange peel, if using, flour and baking soda until thoroughly blended. Add the nuts and the macerated fruit. The dough will be sticky.
- Using well-floured hands or the back of a spoon, press the dough into a foil-lined, 10-by-15-inch jellyroll pan.
- Mix the yolk and the water. Using a pastry brush, brush the dough with the egg wash.
- Bake 20 to 25 minutes, until the dough is light golden. Cool 10 minutes, then cut into 1-by-2-inch bars.

[email protected]These fruit bars are a great way to use up leftover fruit. I had some strawberries and blueberries that were about to go bad, so I threw them in these bars and they turned out great!
