Jammin Good Bars image

One of the quickest, tastiest bar cookie recipes I've used. You can alter the taste by changing fruit preserve flavors. It's a perfect cookie to bring to any pot luck function, but make sure you bring the recipe too, people will ask for it!

Time 55m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
⅛ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup shortening
1 egg
1 (10 ounce) jar raspberry preserves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Cut in the shortening until the mixture is coarse and crumbly. Stir in the egg. I use my hands to mix it all together, it just seems easier. Press about half of the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. Spread the raspberry preserves over the crust then sprinkle with the remaining crumb mixture.
  • Bake for about 35 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven, until lightly toasted. Careful not to overcook. Cool in the pan on a wire rack. Then cut into squares, enjoy!

These bars were a huge disappointment. The crust was dry and crumbly, and the filling was bland. I won't be making these again.

These bars were a bit too time-consuming to make, but they were worth it. They were so delicious that I couldn't stop eating them.

I've tried a lot of different jam bar recipes, but this one is by far the best. The crust is the perfect combination of chewy and crunchy, and the filling is sweet and gooey. I highly recommend this recipe!

The crust on these bars was a bit too crumbly for my liking, but the filling was delicious. I'll try a different crust recipe next time.

These bars were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. I'll probably cut back on the sugar next time I make them.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but these bars were still really good. The crust is the perfect combination of chewy and crunchy, and the filling is sweet and gooey. I'll definitely be making these again, but I'll probably use a different kind of jam.
