How to Make Syltkokosrutor Finnish Jam And Coconut Squares
- Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease a 13x9 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg yolk and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- While the pastry bakes, prepare the coconut topping. In a medium saucepan, combine the shredded coconut, sugar, milk, flour, and vanilla extract.
- Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and is slightly runny. Do not boil!
- Remove the pastry from the oven. Spread the jam evenly over the warm crust.
- Pour the coconut mixture over the jam and spread evenly with a spatula.
- Sprinkle with sliced almonds.
- Return to the oven and bake for another 10-12 minutes, or until the topping is lightly browned and set.
- Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
