Caramel and Apricot Jam Bakes

I am super proud!! Though visually it looks quite regal, very less effort is put for it. It can be made very easily with the least of ingredients. It can be a tasty breakfast recipe, a teatime snack and can be even considered as a sweet dessert.

Ingredients

3½ cups plain flour
¾ cup butter chopped
1 cup icing sugar
1 cup Cream
1 egg
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup apricot jam
1/4 cup caramel sauce
Caramel or chocolate syrup for garnishing

Directions

Add flour, butter, icing sugar, cream, egg and baking powder in a bowl of electric beater. Beat for 3-4 minutes or until mixture is smooth.
Divide dough into half, carefully roll out 1 portion of pastry on baking paper and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Press the remaining portion into a 28cm round baking tin. Then spread apricot jam evenly over pastry. Now pour some caramel sauce on top.
Cut rolled chilled pastry with sharp knife then arrange on top of fruit jam and caramel sauce in a diagonal lattice pattern. Bake in a 180°C preheated oven for 30–35 minutes or until golden.
Cool in tin then cut into squares or fingers. Garnish with carsmel or chocolate syrup and serve.
