I decided to bake this as one of this year's Valentines Day desserts. It was very easy to prepare, and the end result was a deliciously sweet treat! I needed to bake it in a 13" x 9" pan, which is larger than specified, so for the shortbread layer, I used an extra 1/4 cup of flour, and an extra 1/4 cup of self-rising flour, and I also increased the sugar by one tablespoon. I increased the jam by 1/4 cup, and to the topping, I added an extra 1/4 cup of coconut, and an additional tablespoon of sugar. I baked it in a 350 F oven for 25 minutes. This dessert was delicious, and I'll certainly be making it again!

I'm into cooking and love it and then suddenly there isn't time in life to fry an egg! So I'm a drib and drab cook! I have twin teenage boys who eat their way through the house and the supermarket is my second home!
I HATE artificial colours, flavours and preservatives and any other additives. Sends my kids nutty. The more wholesome...the better.
