Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Combine dough ingredients together
Press half into an 8x8 pan lined with parchment paper
Layer jam overtop (I usedC Crofters organic strawberry fruit spread)
Freeze for 30 min
Gently press down other half of dough overtop jam layer (it won't be perfect because you don't want to press too hard and spread the jam. Your glaze will cover imperfections)
Bake at 350 for 17-20 min
Let cool completely. I placed in the freezer for an hour
Mix milk and powdered sugar together and pour overtop shortbread topping. Optional to add dye free sprinkles
Allow to set in fridge / freezer until no longer dripping
Cut into squares and enjoy!
Keep stored in fridge
