This is a great alternative to oatmeal raisin cookies. Plus they stay moist and delicious!

I used 6 packa ges of single serve instant oatmeal with maple flavor and omitted the salt( after discovering that the oatmeal box was empty). I baked it for 30 minutes. Great results.

Just took these out of the oven 30 minutes ago and they are very moist and delicious! Better than I expected.

These were alright. I might make them again if I have an excess of raisins in my pantry!

These are so good. I gave one to my Dad to try and he REALLY liked them. This recipe is a keeper. The only change I had to make was the amount of time left in the oven. I had to cook for 45 min.

These are a great idea. I think I should have doubled the filling though. Either that or put more crust on the bottom and a really thin layer on the top. I used whole wheat pastry flour instead, cut down the sugars to 3/4c and baked it for 30min like the other reviews suggested. I used golden raisins. It came out fine and I chilled it in the fridge for a few hours, which is a really good idea to make the filling firm up as others suggested. The bars weren't too sweet at all. I didn't have corn starch, so I just used more flour and it was fine. Cream cheese would be good with them and they'd be good with dates instead of raisins too. Overall pretty good. And they freeze great too!

So sorry - I see the potential for this recipe, but as it stands I can't give it more than a '2'. If you enjoy grabbing a cup of sugar and pouring it into your mouth, then go for it ... seriously, I *like* sweet things, but there's a point where you have to stop and this goes beyond that limit. Again, great potential and could be fun to tweak, but nope ... not for me.

These were ok - nothing special. Hubby liked 'em. Good way to use up lots of raisins and sour cream. Good keepers.

YummmO ~ I can't say enough about this recipe. I added a drizzle of cream cheese frosting that went sooooo well with the sourcream raisin center. They should be called invisible bars, cos they disappear like magic! I agree with some of the other users that it is a bit too sweet & cutting back the sugar by a third helped a lot. Next time i think I'll reduce it by half, just for my own taste. They froze beautifully and were just as yummy. I'm thinking date bars would be great with this recipe, but any filling would work well.

I had too much sour cream around and was looking for a recipe that used a good bit. I found this one and was only vaguely optimistic that it would be good but it it WONDERFUL just as it is but definitely increase bake time to 30 minutes.

YUMMMMMY! I followed this recipe to the letter however I made a personal substitution: I used Craisins (dried cranberries) instead of raisins. Just my personal preference. These were so amazing. I also let them cook about 30 mins instead of 20 mins so the topping was a bit more crispy. I have passed this recipe on to all my friends - we're hooked!

I thought this recipe was very good, but I don't know if I understood it or not. I cooked them over low heat until they were hot, but I don't know if I cooked it long enough. I would like to know if I would have to use a candy themometer or if I am just not understanding the recipe. I cooked them for about 30 minutes, but I'm not sure the texture was right.

I baked these for my father because he likes Raisin Sour Cream Pie. When he tasted them he said "these taste just like Raisin Sour Cream Pie." I did cook the filling until it thickened and reached the boiling point before spreading on the crust and baking.

Tasty. Maybe a little cinnamon or nutmeg to the crust would give it a little more oomph. :)

20 minutes, 30 minutes, heck, just cut to the chase and eat the dough. Either way, it's going to taste like sugar, butter, raisins and cinnamon. Don't bother with this recipe. If you want an oatmeal cookie, make an oatmeal cookie.

My husband's grandmother is infamous for her sourcream raisin bars. I used this recipe hoping to imitate her bars, but I was rather disappointed. I'll keep looking....

I felt as though i should have cooked the raisin-sour cream mixture longer so that it would set better, but the flavour was amazing. I added some rum to the filling and it was excellent
