This is such an old recipe that I've been making since I was in elementary school. I entered it into a Girl Scout Bake-off contest and won.
You can use raspberry, strawberry, or apricot jelly. These are fast and easy and only have a few ingredients. I make them several times each holiday season. A friend of mine even melts chocolate and drizzles it over the top before cutting.
Ingredients
2 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1 cup margarine (2 sticks)
1 egg
Filling: 12 oz. raspberry jelly (seedless works well) or choose your own flavor
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
This recipe says to grease an 8 x 12 pan, but I use 11x7. You probably could use 9 x 13, they'd just be thinner.
Mix together all ingredients EXCEPT jelly.
Beat at low speed, scraping sides of bowl occasionally until evenly mixed.
Reserve approx. 1 cup of mixture, set aside.
Press remaining mixture into baking dish.
Spread jelly within 1/2" of edges.
Crumble (break into little pieces and drop them all over the top) the remaining 1 cup of batter over the jelly.
Bake at 350 degrees 42-50 minutes until lightly brown around the edges.
Cool completely and cut into bars.
