In microwave-safe bowl, combine Sunsweet Pitted Amaz!n Prunes, brandy and 1/2 cup water; microwave on high for about 2 minutes or until prunes are steaming and plump. Let cool; set aside.

Frangipane: Using electric mixer, beat butter, sugar and orange zest; beat in eggs, almonds, flour and baking powder.
