Raspberry Lemon Bars Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine flour, melted butter, and powdered sugar in a bowl and stir to combine. Pat the dough into the bottom of an 8x8-inch square baking pan using your fingers. Prick the crust all over with a fork to keep it from rising in the oven.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crust just starts to brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
• Combine eggs, white sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and lemon extract in a mixing bowl. Beat until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth. Whisk flour and baking powder together in a separate bowl, then add to the lemon mixture. Continue to beat until the lemon filling is smooth, about 2 minutes.
• Pour the lemon filling on top of the pre-baked pastry crust.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is set, 23 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Cut into 6 bars, then dust with powdered sugar. Top each bar with fresh raspberries.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325ºF.
• Line 13x9-inch pan with foil, with ends of foil extending over sides. Combine graham crumbs, 2 Tbsp. sugar and butter; press onto bottom of prepared pan. Bake 10 min.
• Reserve 1/2 cup raspberries and 1 tsp. lemon zest for later use.
• Beat cream cheese, lemon juice, remaining zest and remaining sugar in large bowl with mixer until blended. Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing on low speed after each just until blended. Gently stir in remaining raspberries; pour over crust.
• Bake 35 to 40 min. or until center is almost set. Cool completely.
• Refrigerate 4 hours. Top with reserved raspberries and lemon zest. Use foil handles to remove cheesecake from pan before cutting into bars.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F whether using metal or glass pan. Stir Filling Mix, water and eggs, using fork (a few lumps will remain); set aside.
• Press Ready-Mixed Crust (dry) in bottom of 8- or 9-inch square pan. Bake 12 minutes.
• Drop cream cheese by spoonfuls onto hot crust and return pan to oven about 2 minutes to further soften cream cheese. Carefully spread cream cheese over crust. Stir filling mixture; pour over cream cheese.
• Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until top begins to brown and center is set. Cool 10 minutes. Spread preserves over top. Cool completely, about 1 hour. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. For 16 bars, cut into 4 rows by 4 rows. For ease in cutting, use sharp or wet knife. Store covered in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray.
• In large bowl, mix Cookie Base ingredients with spoon until soft dough forms. Press into pan. Bake 14 to 16 minutes or until light golden brown. Sprinkle raspberries on crust. Lightly press raspberries into crust.
• In medium bowl, beat 3 eggs, granulated sugar and flour with whisk until well blended. Stir in 1 tablespoon lemon peel and the lemon juice. Pour evenly over raspberries on crust.
• Bake 18 to 22 minutes or until center is set. Cool completely, about 2 hours.
• When ready to serve, sprinkle top with powdered sugar. Cut into 6 rows by 4 rows. Cover and refrigerate any remaining bars.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan.
• Stir melted butter, white sugar, and light brown sugar together. Stir in flour to form a crumbly mixture. Set 3/4 cup of the mixture aside for the topping. Add raspberry baking chips and salt to the remaining mixture.
• Pour raspberry crumb mixture into the prepared pan, distributing it evenly. Use the back of a spoon to press the crumb mixture down into the pan to form a level crust. Spread lemon curd over the crust and top with the reserved crumbs.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes. Cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then refrigerate until bars are set, about 1 hour.
• While the bars are cooling, make the raspberry sauce. Place raspberry preserves in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high until easily stirred with a spoon, about 40 seconds. Stir in raspberry liqueur and refrigerate until cool.
• Cut bars into 9 pieces and drizzle with raspberry sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray a 9- inch square pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Combine all the ingredients for the crust in a medium bowl and stir with a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms.
• Press evenly into the prepared pan.
• Chill for 10 minutes.
• Bake the crust for 15 minutes, then let cool in the baking pan for 15 minutes.
• Combine all the ingredients for the lemon topping in a bowl and whisk until blended.
• Spread the raspberry preserved evenly over the baked crust.
• Pour the lemon topping over the raspberry layer.
• Place in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes.
• Lower the oven temperature to 325°F and bake for 20-25 minutes longer, or until the topping is set.
• Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let cool completely.
• Refrigerate for at least 1 1/2 hours before cutting.
• Store at room temperature, or in the refrigerator if you prefer chilled squares.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• You can either do the base in a bowl, or a food processor fitted with a steel blade.
• Combine flour, sugar, baking soda, and lemon peel. Cut in the butter and egg with a fork, or, if using the food processor, with five-second pulses, until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Set aside two cups of this mixture. Press the rest evenly into an ungreased jelly roll pan (15 1/2 x 10 1/2 inches), and bake for 8 minutes.
• In a 2-quart saucepan over medium-high heat, combine all the filling ingredients. Keeping an eye on it and stirring frequently, cook for about 8 - 15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to a jam/spread-like consistency. Spread the filling evenly over the base, and sprinkle the reserved flour mixture over all. Bake for another 15 - 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Cool completely before cutting.
