How to Make Swedish Punsch Bars

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Divide the dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each half into a thin rectangle (about 12x18 inches).
  7. Brush each rectangle evenly with the Swedish Punsch.
  8. Roll up each rectangle tightly, starting from a long side.
  9. Wrap each roll in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  10. Slice each chilled roll into 1/2-inch thick slices.
  11. Place the slices on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them.
  12. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
  13. Let the Punsch bars cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  14. Dust with powdered sugar and sprinkle with optional chopped nuts.
  15. Serve and enjoy your homemade Swedish Punsch Bars!
