Enjoy these with some ice cream.

3/4 c. butter, softened
1/2 c. sugar
1/4 tsp almond extract
1 3/4 c. unbleached AP flour
1/2 c. pecans, finely chopped
1/4 tsp. salt
1 8oz. jar of your best store bought or homemade raspberry preserves
1/2 c. coconut

In a medium mixing bowl beat the softened butter, sugar, and almond extract (feel free to use other flavors) until thoroughly combined. Add the flour, finely chopped pecans, and salt.

Beat until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve 1 cup of the flour mixture. Press remaining flour mixture into the bottom of an ungreased pan 13x9x2.

Spread raspberry jam over crust sprinkle with remaining flour and coconut. Bake 350 degree for 25 to 30 min. or tops is golden. Cool pan on wire rack.
