Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups butter, softened
  • 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
  • 6 eggs, separated
  • 1 ½ cups white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • ¾ cup raspberry preserves, or to taste

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2
Beat flour, butter, powdered sugar, and egg yolks together in a large bowl. Press into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking pan.

Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until lightly golden, about 12 minutes.

Step 4
Meanwhile, beat egg whites with an electric mixer until foamy. Gradually add white sugar, continuing to beat until stiff, shiny peaks form. Fold in rice vinegar and cornstarch with a spatula.

Step 5
Remove crust from the oven; cover with jam. Spoon meringue over the top. Continue baking until meringue is golden brown, about 25 minutes. Let cool completely before cutting into bars.
