Mother's Sour Cream Bars image

These bars are different from anything we've ever had. They have a crunchy oatmeal crust that complements the creamy middle layer. The layer is sweet and tangy with raisins in every bite. A delicious old-fashioned heirloom recipe.

I'm not usually a fan of sour cream desserts, but these bars were really good. The crust was perfectly flaky and the filling was creamy and tangy.

I was a bit skeptical about the sour cream in the filling, but it really works. These bars are so moist and flavorful.
