Bar Cookies

When I make these bars, I use a 15x10x1 inch pan or pans.  I can not just make one pan of the bars.  At work I would make these and same thing it was never less than 3 or 4 pans full and gone in no time.

 

1-1/4 cups flour

1/4 tsp. salt

1/2 cup (1 stick) cold butter or margarine, cut up

3 Tbsp. cold water

2 eggs

1/2 cup sugar

1 pkg. (7 oz.) BAKER'S ANGEL FLAKE Coconut (2-2/3 cups)

1/3 cup any kind you like of preserves

 

PREHEAT oven to 425°F. Mix flour and salt in medium bowl [I use a food presser]  Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add water, stirring with fork until well blended. Press firmly onto bottom of ungreased 9-inch square baking pan.

 

BAKE 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.

 

BEAT eggs in small bowl with electric mixer on high speed until frothy. Gradually add sugar, beating until thick and lemon colored. Gently stir in coconut. Spread preserves over crust to within 1/4 inch of edges. Carefully spread coconut mixture over preserves. Continue baking 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely on wire rack. Cut into 24 bars.
