Coconut Jam Fingers Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugar until they are just combined and then add the vanilla. Separately, sift together the flour and salt. With the mixer on low speed, add the flour mixture to the creamed butter and sugar. Mix until the dough starts to come together. Dump on a floured board and roll together into a flat disk. Wrap in plastic and chill for 30 minutes.
• Roll the dough into 1 1/4-inch balls. (If you have a scale they should each weigh 1 ounce.) Dip each ball into the egg wash and then roll it in coconut. Place the balls on an ungreased cookie sheet and press a light indentation into the top of each with your finger. Drop 1/4 teaspoon of jam into each indentation. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the coconut is a golden brown. Cool and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• BASE: Blend the brown sugar, flour and butter until the mixture is well combined. Press evenly into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan. Bake in the middle of the oven for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and spread with the raspberry jam.
• Beat the eggs, sugar, flour, coconut, almonds, vanilla and salt together.
• Spread the coconut mixture evenly over the crust and bake for 20 minutes, or until it is pale golden. Cut into 48 bars while warm and let them cool completely in the pan on a rack.
• Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days at room temperature. Freeze for longer storage.

Steps:
