APRICOT SQUARES 
2 c. flour
1 c. Crisco
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1 egg
1 tbsp. vanilla
1 (12 oz.) jar Smucker's Apricot Preserves

(Beat egg and vanilla together first.)

Mix the first 6 ingredients together like pastry. Grease and flour a 13x9x2 inch pan. Put 2/3 of the dough in the pan (flour your fingers) and press it up along the sides for 1/2 inch. Spread the preserves on top.

Sprinkle the rest of the dough mixture on top of the preserves. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes until edges are brown.

Peach or raspberry preserves may be used instead of apricot.
