Directions
- In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; cut in butter until crumbly. Combine eggs and vanilla; stir into crumb mixture until blended. Cover and refrigerate a fourth of the dough for at least 45 minutes.
- Press remaining dough into an ungreased 15-in. x 10-in. 1-in. baking pan. Spread 1/4 cup apricot preserves in a 1-3/4-in. strip over one long side of crust. Spread 1/4 cup of raspberry preserved in a 1-3/4-in. strip adjoining the apricot strip. Repeat twice. Roll out reserved dough to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut into 1/2-in. strips; make a lattice top.
- Bake at 325 degrees F for 30-35 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on wire rack. Cut into bars.
