Servings: 9

 

Ingredients:

3 cups all purpose flour

8 - 9 oz good quality jam (I used wild boysenberry)

1/2 tsp salt

2/3 cup smooth peanut butter (I like Jif)

2/3 cup sugar

1 tsp vanilla

Equipment:

baking paper

measuring cup

baking pan

oven

Cooking instruction summary:

Set the oven to 350FSpray a 9x9 square baking pan with baking spray, and, if you like, line it with a piece of parchment paper with long ends so you can lift out the baked squares for easier cutting.Cream the butter and sugar together, along with the peanut butter, until everything is well combined and creamy. Beat in the salt and vanilla.Gradually mix in the flour until it is completely blended in and the dough is crumbly. Don't over-mix it.Press about 2/3 of the dough onto the bottom of the pan, covering the entire surface, and patting it gently down so it is evenly distributed. I like to use the back of a metal measuring cup to tamp the dough down and lightly flatten it.Spread the jam evenly over the surface of the dough. It's fine if the jam isn't completely covered.Crumble the remaining dough over the top of the jam, using your fingertips to break up the dough into large crumbles.Bake for about 45 minutes, until lightly golden.Let cool slightly before cutting.

Food Joke

An old man and a young man worked in office next to each other. The young man had noticed that the older man always seemed to have a jar of peanuts on his desk. The young man loved peanuts. One day while the older man was away from his desk the young man couldn't resist and went to the old man's jar and ate over half the peanuts. When the old man returned the young man felt guilty and confessed to taking the peanuts. The old man responded "That's ok since I lost my teeth all I can do is lick the chocolate off the M&Ms."
