A co-worker’s mother gave me this gem of a recipe a few years back.  I can never decide what’s more appealing – the attractive look of the bars or their incredible aroma while they’re baking!  Everyone who tries these asks for the recipe.

Raspberry White Chocolate Bars Recipe

Raspberry White Chocolate Bars

½ cup butter, cubed

1 pkg. (10 to 12 oz.) white baking chips, divided

2 eggs

½ cup sugar

1 tsp. almond extract

1 cup flour

½ tsp. salt

½ cup seedless raspberry jam

¼ cup sliced almonds

In a small saucepan, melt butter.  Remove from heat; add 1 cup chips (DO NOT STIR).  In a small bowl, beat eggs until foamy; gradually add sugar.  Stir in chip mixture and add almond extract.  Combine flour and salt; gradually add to egg mixture just until combined.

Spread half of the batter into a greased 9 inch square baking pan.  Bake at 325 F. for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

In a small saucepan, melt jam over low heat; spread over warm crust.  Stir remaining chips into the remaining batter; drop by teaspoonfuls over the jam layer.  Sprinkle with almonds.

Bake 30-35 minutes longer or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.  Cool on wire rack.  Cut into bars.     2 dozen
