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 bit too rich for me. I think I'll try making them with a lighter cheesecake filling next time.

The crust on these bars was a bit too dry for my liking. I think I'll add a little more butter next time.

These bars are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using a less sweet jam next time.

I love the way these bars look. The jam filling swirls through the cheesecake filling, creating a beautiful marbled effect.

These bars are so rich and decadent, but they're not too heavy. They're the perfect size for a small treat.

I made these bars with raspberry jam and they were amazing! The tartness of the jam balanced out the sweetness of the crust and cheesecake filling perfectly.

These bars are the perfect treat for any occasion. They're great for potlucks, bake sales, or just to have on hand for a sweet snack.

I love how easy these bars are to make. The crust is simply a mixture of flour, butter, and sugar, and the cheesecake filling is just a few ingredients whipped together. Even a beginner baker can make these bars.
