  5. 1 (12 oz)jar of apricot jam
  6. 3/4 cupFinely chopped pecans (or walnuts, your choice)

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cream butter with sugar, mix well

  2. 2

    Add egg yolk, mix until fluffy

  3. 3

    Add flour and mix until dough is formed. Dough will be soft when finished.

  4. 4

    Divide dough in half. Set one aside and flatten the other half in a 9×13 pan

  5. 5

    Once flattened, spread your jam evenly over the dough.

  6. 6

  7. 7

    Gently press down dough with a spatula

  8. 8

    Add crushed pecans or walnuts

  9. 9

    Set oven to 350° and bake for 40-45 minutes

  10. 10

    When finished baking, dough should be a very light golden brown (almost the same color as they were when they went in the oven.. it'll be "hard" to tell if they're done, but if you see some of the apricot bubbling, they're done)

  11. 11

    Sprinkle on your powered sugar

  12. 12

    Cut into 1 inch squares and enjoy!!

Is this recipe meant to have 2 cups of sugar and 1 cup of flour? Mine ended up having a sticky toffee texture not a cooked square at all.
