(Courtesy of Good Housekeeping)

Ingredients:
3 c. all-purpose flour
1/4 c. granulated sugar
4 tsp. baking powder
3/4 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
10 Tbsp. butter, cut up and cold
3/4 c. plus 2 Tbsp. buttermilk
3/4 c. raspberry or strawberry jam
1 c. confectioners' sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp. milk
Red food coloring and coarse sugar, if desired

Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.  In a food processor, pulse flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.  Add butter; pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.  Transfer to a large bowl; stir in buttermilk until dough comes together.

Transfer to lightly floured surface; divide dough in half.  Roll 1 piece dough into 15x10 inch rectangle; cut into six 5 inch squares.  Spread 1 Tbsp. jam on half of each square; moisten squares' edge with water.  Fold pastry over filling; with fork, seal edges.  Prick pastry all over.  Transfer tarts to large baking sheet.  Repeat with remaining dough and jam.

Bake tarts 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.  In a medium bowl, stir confectioners' sugar, vanilla, milk and food coloring, if using.  When pastries are no longer hot, drizzle glaze over tops and sprinkle with sugar, if using.
