I made these for the first time this Christmas, and they are destined to become a regular on my list every year. If you don't like raspberry, I'm sure any other flavor of preserves would be equally delicious!
Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1 cup chopped pecans
1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine, softened
1 egg
1 (10 ounce) jar raspberry preserves
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, pecans, butter& egg.
2. Beat at low speed, scraping bowl often, until mixture is crumbly (about 2-3 minutes).
3. Reserve 1 1/2 cups crumb mixture; set aside.
4. Press remaining crumb mixture on bottom of greased 8- or 9-inch square baking pan.
5. Spread preserves to within 1/2 inch of edge.
6. Crumble reserved crumb mixture over preserves.
7. Bake 40-50 minutes or until lightly browned.
8. Cool completely; cut into bars or squares.
