Equipment

Electric mixer, large bowl, mixing bowl, plastic wrap, box grater, 9x13 inch baking pan, spoon or flexible spatula, wire rack, serrated knife

Ingredients

  • 1 lb unsalted butter, slightly softened
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 4 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup raspberry jam (with or without seeds, at room temperature)
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Cream the butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until soft and fluffy.

  2. Add the egg yolks and mix well.

  3. In a another bowl mix the sugar, flour, baking powder and salt together.

  4. Add the dry ingredients to the butter/egg mixture and mix until just blended and the dough starts to come together.

  5. Turn out the dough onto a floured work surface and form into 2 balls.

  6. Wrap each ball in plastic wrap and freeze at least 2 hours or overnight.

  7. Heat your oven to 350 degrees F.

  8. Remove one ball of dough from the freezer and coarsely grate it into the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan. Make sure the surface is covered evenly with shreds of dough.

  9. With the back of a spoon or flexible spatula spread the jam over top, to within 1/2 inch of the edge all the way around.

  10. Remove the remaining dough ball from the freezer and coarsely grate it over the entire surface.

  11. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until light golden brown.

  12. Dust with the powdered sugar as soon as it comes out of the oven.

  13. Cool on a wire rack and then cut in the pan with a serrated knife.
