Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 egg
2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup favorite jam or preserves
Powdered sugar, if desired

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Grease bottom and sides of 13x9-inch pan with shortening. In medium bowl, mix butter, granulated sugar, vanilla and egg with spoon. Stir in flour and baking powder until dough forms. Pat dough evenly in pan.
  • Beginning 3/4 inch from short side of pan, press 1/2-inch-wide and 1/4-inch-deep groove in dough, using end of wooden spoon. Make 8 more grooves, each 1 1/2 inches apart. Fill each groove with slightly less than 1 tablespoon jam.
  • Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool completely, about 1 hour. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. For bars, cut into 8 rows by 4 rows.
