Ingredients

  • 2 cups butter, softened
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 jar (12 ounces) raspberry jam

Method

  • In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in extract. Combine flour and baking powder; gradually add to the creamed mixture and mix well.
  • Press into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. With a moistened finger, make diagonal indentations every 2 in. in both directions, about 1/3 in. deep.
  • Fill indentations with jam. Bake at 350° for 40 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack. Cut into bars.
