Raspberry Streusel Bars

RASPBERRY STREUSEL BARS

I love any kind of bar...especially with raspberries. Everytime I make this "raspberry bar" it disappears almost the same day...so mouth-watering.
I got this recipe from a fellow foodie...Paulette from a Foodie Board that I belong to.

today I'm linking to "FOODIE FRIDAY" at

.

RASPBERRY STREUSEL BARS

1 cup (2 sticks), softened
1 egg
1 cup sugar
2 cups flour
3/4 pecans, chopped (less if using only for topping)
9 oz. seedless raspberry preserves


Combine butter and sugar in large bowl.
Add egg and flour......Mix until crumbly.

If putting pecans into dough, add now.......reserve 1 cup of mixture for topping.
Press remaining mixture into bottom of 9 x 13 greased pan.
Spread the preserves to 1/2 of edge.
Crumble reserved mixture over top.

Bake 25-30 minutes...or till lightly browned.

Cool and cut into bars and sprinkle confectioner's sugar on top.

Note....I didn't use any pecans this time around as I have a friend who doesn't like nuts.
