RASPBERRY BAR COOKIES



Raspberry Bar Cookies image

I got this recipe from a friend in high school and have made it almost every year since as a favorite on either Thanksgiving or Christmas. These are simple and yummy, and I crave them every fall! I usually fully process the walnuts into a fine powder because I don't like the texture of nuts, but they add a nice flavor.

2 cups flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar

2 tablespoons lemon juice
3/4 cup flour
1 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup margarine

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • For crust, mix ingredients together (I usually melt the butter first to make it even easier, but you don't have to) and pat into bottom of a 9-in. x 13-in. x 2-in. pan. Bake 12 minutes.
  • For filling, stir ingredients together and spread over baked crust. You do not have to wait for the crust to cool.
