CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY DREAM BARS
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. For the crust: In a large bowl, beat butter until creamy. Add flour, brown sugar and salt and beat well. Press 2 cups of the crumb mixture into a 9 x 13 inch baking dish that has been lightly greased. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are lightly golden. Meanwhile, combine 1 cup of chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk in a saucepan. Cook over low heat until melted,stirring constantly. Carefully spread the chocolate mixture over the hot crust. Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture evenly over the chocolate. Next, drop the jam by teaspoonfuls over the crumb mixture leaving spaces in-between and swirl with a knife. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips and white chocolate chips over the top. Place on the lowest rack in the oven (to prevent browning) and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the center is set. Cool completely and cut into bars.
Tips:
- To make sure your crust is evenly baked, pre-bake it for about 10 minutes before adding the filling.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can crush the graham crackers in a resealable bag using a rolling pin.
- For a creamier filling, use a combination of cream cheese and sour cream.
- If you're using fresh raspberries, be sure to rinse and dry them thoroughly before adding them to the filling.
- For a more intense raspberry flavor, use a raspberry extract or liqueur in the filling.
- If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a resealable bag with a corner snipped off to drizzle the glaze over the bars.
- These bars can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
