I clipped this recipe from the Chicago Tribune many years ago. I made it often but had forgotten about it until I was searching for things to make for a holiday party.
Ingredients:
1 (17 ounce) roll refrigerated sugar cookie dough (17 ounces)
3/4 cup strawberry preserves
2 teaspoons flour
3 eggs
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups sour cream
1/4 cup milk
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Directions:
1. Slice cookie dough into as directed on the package.
2. Place 24 slices in a 13 X 9 inch baking pan & press together to cover the bottom of the pan completely.
3. Mix preserves with flour and spread thinly over the dough.
4. In a medium bowl, slightly beat the eggs, add remaining ingredients and continue beating just until smooth.
5. Pour custard mixture over the preserve layer.
6. Optional: If you have cookie slices left, roll into thin strips and place them lattice-like on custard.
7. Bake in a preheated 350ยบ on lowest rack for 50 minutes or until custard has set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Cool on rack then chill.
9. Cut into squares before serving.
