These brownies are unique in taste. The mixture of fruit and nuts in a cake like snack is very delightful. This recipe was passed down through a few generations all the way to my generation. When I first saw the brownies I was shocked at the color and questioned what I was about to eat. I was assured these would be great and after trying it I was pleased. This goes well with vanilla Ice cream either on the side or making an Ice cream sandwich with two brownies and a scoop of vanilla Ice cream. Using the Ice cream as a dip for the brownies also. You can sprinkle some chocolate chips in with the Ice cream and have a extra flavor to enjoy with your snack! Great snack for children and adults.
