These are very sweet and delicate. I only had half a jar of seedless raspberries so I added the only thing I had left in the fridge...grape jelly (that could explain the sweetness)!!! There are crumbly and at first I didn't think they would bake up very well. Make sure you let the bars cool completely before trying to cut since they do crumble easily. However, we couldn't stop eating them!!! I would like to try these with other jam and jelly fillings next time.

Excellent bar cookies. Very easy to make. Brought these to a party and they went fast. Crumbly and smooth at the same time. I also made a batch with apricot preserves and it was just as good.

This was an easy great recipe. I think I'm going to add some mini chocolate chips next time to make it even better.

Very good recipe! I substituted splenda for the sugar and used 100% fruit spread, also added almost a full pkg of grain sweetened chocolate chips. Very sweet, but very good.I will make these again, varying the fruit part.

These are the best raspberry bars. There are no complaints and they go very fast.

My family loved this recipe, and it's so easy to add to such as shredded coconut or nuts into the top layer. The only trouble I had was keeping the family away from it long enough for it to set.

Very simple and DELICIOUS! I use butter flavored Criso to add a little more flavor. I also add a half cup of finely chopped nuts (whatever I have on hand - almonds, walnuts, pecans, etc) to the crust and topping mixture. YUM!!!!!
