Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375ºF. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch pan and line with parchment paper. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and butter until well combined. The mix will have small chunks of butter. In a small bowl, whisk extracts into beaten egg yolks. Combine with flour mixture Remove 2 generous cups of the crumb mixture and set aside for the topping in a small bowl. Press remaining dough evenly into prepared baking pan. Spoon Tart Cherry Pie Filling into pan on top of dough and spread evenly with rubber spatula Sprinkle with reserved crumb mixture. Bake until topping is golden brown and filling is cooked through and bubbly, about 55 minutes. Tip: To prevent over-browning of topping, cover with sheet of aluminum foil during last 20 minutes of baking.
Tips:
- Chilling the dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps to prevent it from spreading too much and keeps the bars from becoming too crumbly.
- Use fresh cherries: Fresh cherries are the best option for this recipe, but frozen cherries can also be used. If using frozen cherries, thaw them completely before using.
- Pit the cherries: Before using the cherries, be sure to pit them. A cherry pitter can be used to make this task easier.
- Use a good quality chocolate: The chocolate chips used in this recipe are an important flavor component, so be sure to use a good quality chocolate that you enjoy.
- Don't overbake the bars: The bars are done baking when the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Overbaking will make the bars dry and crumbly.
Conclusion:
Cherry Crumble Bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With a sweet and tangy cherry filling, a buttery oat crumble topping, and a rich chocolate drizzle, these bars are sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give Cherry Crumble Bars a try!
