       Yield: 32 servings
  
       2 c  Tropical fruit & nut mix
       4 oz Semisweet chocolate pieces
     1/4 c  Unsalted butter
       2    Lg Oranges' Zest
  
   Grease a shallow 11" x 7" baking pan with butter; line bottom with
   parchment or waxed paper.  Coarsely grind fruit and nut mix in a food
   processor or blender.  Melt chocolate and butter together in a small bowl
   placed over a pan of gently simmering water, stirring frequently.  Mix in
   the processed nut mix and 1/2 of the orange zest.  Spread mixture smoothly
   in prepared pan.  Sprinkle remaining zest over top, pressing it in
   lightly.  Refrigerate 1 to 2 hours or until firmly set.  Loosen set
   mixture from pan by carefully running the tip of a knife around the inside
   edges of the pan.  Carefully turn out onto a board; remove paper.  Turn
   mixture over and cut in 32 pieces.  Store in an airtight container in a
   cool place for 2 to 3 days.  Source: "The Book of Cookies" by Pat Alburey,
