List of Ingredients




Crust:
2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup cold butter
3 egg yolks

Topping:
3 egg whites
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup strawberry preserves
1/4 cup slivered almonds



Recipe



Heat oven to 350 F. Combine flour and 1/2 cup sugar in a medium bowl. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the egg yolks. Press onto bottom of ungreased 13 X 9 inch baking dish. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned. Meanwhile, beat egg whites and the cream of tartar in a small mixer bowl at high speed until foamy, about 45 to 60 seconds.

Continue beating, gradually adding powdered sugar, until glossy
and stiff peaks form, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Spread the preserves over hot, partially baked crust. Spread egg white mixture over preserves; sprinkle with almonds. Continue baking for 22 to 27 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool completely. Cut into bars with a sharp, wet knife.
