Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°(F). Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, extending paper over edges. Lightly grease parchment; set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl using a handheld electric mixer, combine all crumb mixture ingredients (the first 6 ingredients). Beat at low speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl often, until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve 2 cups crumb mixture; set aside.
- Press the remaining crumb mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking pan. Spread preserves on top, leaving a 1/2 inch clean border around the edges. Crumble reserved crumb topping over preserves.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely; cut into bars.
For the glaze:
- In a small bowl whisk together the confectioners' sugar, milk, and vanilla; beat until completely smooth, adding more liquid if a thinner consistency is needed, and more sugar if a thicker consistency is needed. Drizzle over cooled, cut bars.
Notes
- *If you choose to skip the brown butter step, simply use 2 sticks (8 ounces) of cold butter cut into cubes.
