Directions
Chocolate Raspberry Bars, This great recipe comes from Taste of Home New Cake Mix Creations cookbook & is only for the sweetest of sweet tooths! Preparation time does not include time needed for crust to cool or for completed bars to cool in the refrigerator , What a great cookie/bar The combination of chocolate and raspberry is just heavenly A word of caution though it’s very easy to over bake the crust I did this the first time I made them again today and much better results Very elegant and definitely guest quality This will probably become one of my favorite desserts Updated 12/09 I was having problems with the chocolate and butter the chocolate was wanting to sieze I looked for a dipping chocolate recipe here on Zaar and found one using solid shortening (Crisco) In fact the author stressed not to use butter I tried another batch of the drizzling chocolate with the Crisco and exactly what i wanted nice, smooth chocolate and made a beautiful presentation Also, I chilled the cookie base/jam before trying to spread the cream cheese on it That helped reduce the jam from wanting to pull up and swirl in with the cream cheese , Decadent & rich Hard to spread the cream cheese mixture over the raspberry, it ended up a little swirled , but the flavor still is the same Definitely cut into small bites as this is sweet & rich like candy
