Rasberry Shortbread Bars

Everyone loves these raspberry bars, they deport keep an ultra-buttery shortbread crust topped with cooked raspberries as good as a streusel topping. They are actually sweet, buttery, tender AND they cut nicely...perfect for gift giving.



Raspberries grow expert inward Alaska, thence if you lot lot are lucky enough to deport keep shut to inward the freezer, this is a wonderful recipe for them; I'm not thence lucky, thence I used a 12 ounce handbag of frozen raspberries.

NOTE: You tin skip this step if you lot lot wish to trouble raspberry (or ANY flavor) jam.

Put the berries (no need to thaw) in a heavy saucepan with 1/4 loving loving cup of body of water as good as 1 loving loving cup of white sugar. Bring to a boil over high heat, as good as too then cutting downwardly the oestrus to medium high and simmer the berries until thick (I plough mine downwards to a medium depression oestrus for a gentle boil as good as fix them for close xv minutes, stirring 1 fourth dimension inward a while). Set aside to cool (they testament thicken fifty-fifty more than as they cool).


SHORTBREAD CRUST
21 tablespoons of butter, melted as good as cooled to room temp.
This seems similar a lot of butter, precisely it makes an 
upper AND lower crust
3/4 loving loving cup of white sugar
2 large egg yolks
3 cups + iii tablespoons all trouble flour
1 teaspoon vanilla

Mix everything inward a stand upwards upward mixer: it testament construct a actually stiff dough. Remove TWO CUPS of this dough as good as pat it evenly into a parchment (or foil) lined nine x xiii pan. Chill inward the refrigerator for xxx minutes (or freezer for 10 minutes). Remove as good as prick the dough with a fork.

Bake the nine x xiii chilled pan of dough, on the middle rack of your oven, for 20 minutes at 325°After 20 minutes, the dough testament fifty-fifty thence locomote actually pale inward color as good as testament not deport keep whatsoever golden color on the edges. Remove it from the oven as good as spread the cooled raspberry filling (or jam) evenly over it.


To the reserved shortbread dough(that you lot lot lay aside), add together together 1/4 loving loving cup of granulated refined saccharify as good as 1/2 loving loving cup of chopped pecans. Use a fork to pause upward the dough into crumbs.


Sprinkle the crumbs evenly over the raspberry layer as good as press e'er thence lightly. Bake on the TOP rack of a 350° oven for 25 minutes (my electrical oven takes 32 minutes). The topping should locomote a golden color (watch the crumbles towards the finish of the baking 4th dimension thence they don't instruct dark). 

Cool baked bars (in the pan) on a wire rack for at to the lowest bird an threescore minutes or until completely firm. When the bottom of the pan is completely cool to the touch, elevate the bars out of the pan by times pulling on the flap ends of the foil. Cut into 2" bars. These testament die along at room temperature for a week.




 NOTE: The butter standard of 21 tablespoons is not a typing error.

NOTE: Line  your 9" x 13" baking pan with parchment (or foil) as good as instruct out the ends of the foil a picayune long, thence you lot lot tin trouble them every bit handles to elevate the cooled bars out of the pan. You don't deport keep to grease the bottom of the pan because there's thence much butter inward the shortbread, precisely DO spray the sides of the pan/foil with cooking spray thence the jam doesn't stick to the sides.

NOTE: Pay tending to baking temperatures. The outset crust pre-bake is on the middle rack at 325°. The inwards decision bake is on the TOP rack at 350° so that the bottom of the crust doesn't instruct as good dark.


NOTE: You tin trouble whatsoever flavour jam you lot lot like.
