How to Make Tayglach

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and 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. Spread half of the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  7. Spread the apricot preserves evenly over the batter.
  8. Sprinkle with chopped nuts.
  9. Top with the remaining batter, spreading it evenly.
  10. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  11. Let the Tayglach cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
  12. Dust generously with powdered sugar before serving.
