Ingredients

2 cups AP Flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

3/4 cup of sugar

3/4 cup butter flavored shortening

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

2 Tablespoons milk

Jar of favorite jam,jelly,preserves or fruit spread

Directions

Preheat oven to 400

Butter a small cookie sheet and set aside

Combine flour through milk and knead gently

Divide dough in half

Press one half of the dough into prepared baking sheet

Spread Jam over the dough

Cover with the rest of the dough ((I roll it out and cut shapes with a cookie cutter for the top) it's artistic license. I've also made a lattice for the top, which was more tricky but beautiful))

Bake for 20 minutes or so until it starts to brown

Cool in pan and cut into squares

Layer on waxed paper
