Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place oven racks in the bottom third and top third of the oven. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil, making sure the foil is tucked into all the corners and that there is at least 1 inch overhanging the top of the pan.
- Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl.
- Combine the butter and sugar in a medium-size mixing blow and cream together with an electric mixer until smooth. Stir in the egg. Stir in the vanilla extract. Stir in the flour mixture.

- Remove the pan from the freezer and spread the preserves in an even layer on top of the dough. Pinch off pieces of the remaining dough and scatter them evenly over the jam.
- Place the pan on the bottom oven rack and bake for 20 minutes. Transfer the pan to the top rack and bake until the top is ight golden, another 5 to 10 minutes. Let the pan cool completely on a wire rack.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and cardamom. In another bowl, combine the sugar and lemon zest, rubbing the zest into the sugar to perfume it.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a large bowl, using a handheld mixer), cream the butter on high speed until fluffy. Add the lemon sugar and salt and continue beating until light and fluffy. Reduce the speed to low and add the egg yolks one at a time, mixing after each addition, then add the dry ingredients and mix until fully combined.
- Turn the dough out and divide into 2 equal pieces. Wrap each piece in plastic wrap and place in the freezer for at least 30 minutes. (The dough can be frozen for up to a month.)
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a quarter sheet pan with parchment.
- Using the large holes on a box grater, grate one piece of the dough onto the prepared pan and spread lightly into an even layer (don't press it down into the pan). With an offset spatula, spread the jam evenly over the grated dough. Grate the remaining block of dough, then scatter the grated dough evenly over the jam layer; don't press down.
- Transfer to the oven and bake until the top is golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool completely, then cut into 40 little bars. The cookies will keep in an airtight container for up to a week; baked cookies can also be frozen for up to a month.

ITALIAN SHORTBREAD WITH ALMONDS AND JAM
This is a wonderful dessert for those unexpected emergencies. It smells divine and it's so beautiful it makes you look like a wizard in the kitchen. You don't even have to grease the pan. The shortbread tastes best the day after it's baked, if there's any left. Serve with ice cream or a glass of Vin Santo or other sweet dessert...

- 4. Press remaining dough evenly into the pan. It can be a little higher at the edge but the center shouldn't be elevated. Spread jam evenly over dough to within an inch of the edge. Retrieve the remaining dough from freezer and crumble it over the jam, allowing some of the jam to peek through. Sprinkle the almonds evenly over to top
- 5. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes or til golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool completely on wire rack. Stand the pan on a heavy can to remove the sides. The rim will just fall away. Transfer shortbread, still on the pan bottom to a platter or use a spatula to remove it form pan. to serve,dust with powdered sugar, if desired and either break into serving pieces or let your guests break off pieces as they like. Note: You can make the shortbread, unbaked up to 1 month ahead. Wrap it twice in plastic wrap and freeze it on a flat surface. To bake the shortbread, unwrap it and set it frozen in the oven. Allow a few extra minutes of baking time. If you like, you can you can omit the jam. Just press all the dough into the pan and top it with the almonds. You might want to add the grated zest of a lemon (I'd try an orange, too) to the dough along with the almond extract.

SHORTBREAD COOKIES WITH WARM APPLES AND JAM
WHILE chocolate desserts, fresh fruit sorbets and fruit tarts re main the classic, ever-popular French desserts, lighter, cookie- based desserts are appearing more frequently. Several Paris restaurants have recently offered sable, or shortbread cookie, desserts. This recipe comes from Jacqueline Fenix, a fine restaurant in Neuilly, a Paris suburb, where the chef, Michel Rubod, offers warm shortbread with sauteed apples and homemade apricot jam. At Tour d'Argent the menu recently featured a dessert made of three layers of sables interlaced with fresh raspberries, all set in a pool of fresh raspberry sauce, while at Jacques Cagna sables came warm from the oven, accompanied by sauteed apples and cinnamon ice cream.
