Original recipe yields 1 - 9x13 inch pan

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in the butter until the lumps are smaller than peas. Mix in the egg and milk to form a dough. Press into the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan. Spread a layer of jam over the crust. In a medium bowl, cream together the confectioners' sugar and remaining butter. Beat in the egg and vanilla then stir in the coconut. Spread evenly over the layer of jam.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until top is lightly browned. Cool before cutting into squares.

"my mom has made these every Christmas for the last 35 years and are one of our family's all-time favorites. The only difference is we use granulated sugar instead of icing sugar in the topping and 2 ..." See morecups coconut instead of 1 1/2 cups. Make these in a 8x8 (or 9x9) pan tho so they're nice and thick or double the recipe for a 9x13 pan"

"These were absolutely delicious! I used water instead of milk/egg in the crust -- it brings out the saltiness more and tastes great. Also, I used real sugar instead of confectioner's sugar -- yum!..." See more"

"They are really yummy but the crust is too thin when spread in a 9x13 pan. Probably double the crust recipe, makes it easier to spread too. ..." See more"
