Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350F. In an electric mixer, cream the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add the flour and mix well.
Press the mixture into the bottom of a greased 9 x 13 baking pan. Bake for 18-22 minutes or until golden. Remove from oven.
Spread the raspberry preserves over the crust.
In a large bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add the sugar, 1 tbsp at a time, on high until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the coconut (if using) and 1/2 cup almonds. Spread the meringue evenly over the jam. Sprinkle the remaining almonds over the top. Return to oven and bake for another 18-22 minutes or until golden.
