Made a double batch with half oil and half butter, and used one batch worth of preserves and one bag of defrosted frozen raspberries. Made in a 1\/2 sheet pan with nonstick reynolds wrap for church. An hour in the fridge is necessary to get clean cuts.<\/p>","CommentId":9,"DateRated":"03\/20\/2013 20:44","GUID":"bea44ee8322245cf8120f884950c29b1","MemberId":7189747,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"MichelleChurchSupperQueen","SubmittedDate":"03\/20\/2013 20:43"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":10,"DateRated":"03\/15\/2013 08:57","GUID":"c762ab19767745229cd453b09642e260","MemberId":6353988,"Rating":0,"ScreenName":"zippee-0415","SubmittedDate":"03\/15\/2013 08:57"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":11,"DateRated":"03\/14\/2013 20:12","GUID":"934455B7133D49EDBD8AA2688CC43D8B","MemberId":2058303,"Rating":0,"ScreenName":"leelaw","SubmittedDate":"03\/14\/2013 20:12"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":12,"DateRated":"02\/03\/2013 19:27","GUID":"ce66df8e9c374e408bfa3ecc6d23c928","MemberId":1029480,"Rating":0,"ScreenName":"kelleytwinmom","SubmittedDate":"02\/03\/2013 19:27"},{"Comment":"

Followed the recipe exactly and they were delicious. The only thing I would recommend is to "pat down" the crumb mixture into the jam before putting back in the oven; this will allow the crumb mixture to adhere and thus avoid losing all that yummy flavor.<\/p>","CommentId":14,"DateRated":"12\/19\/2011 07:21","GUID":"5a0de97f9e55491197ce0f7a4e118af2","MemberId":3694773,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Wingslady","SubmittedDate":"12\/19\/2011 07:21"},{"Comment":"
I tried this for a Bunco group and these were a big hit ! 3 recipe requests immediately! Leftovers were served the next night to dinner guests who raved about them. The only drawback , in my opinion, is that the topping is so crumbly it's very difficult to pick up one to eat. Maybe I just didn't get the crumbs small enough. I'm making these again for a cookie exchange<\/p>","CommentId":15,"DateRated":"11\/21\/2011 13:19","GUID":"36256215E8954839B7CC5588C5B43B06","MemberId":876567,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"newrecipejunkie","SubmittedDate":"11\/21\/2011 13:19"},{"Comment":"
I first made this recipe with raspberry jam and it was great. The next time I made it with Pina Colada Jam (that I made from a Taste Recipes recipe) and added crushed pineapple to the jam. It was fantastic!!!!!<\/p>","CommentId":16,"DateRated":"09\/14\/2011 12:44","GUID":"571d0507a5ff49b88a7416c76869cb29","MemberId":3750788,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"tjeffries@flexiblefoam.com","SubmittedDate":"09\/14\/2011 12:44"},{"Comment":"

I've made this so many times, and it's always great. I like to sprinkle white chocolate chips over the jam, and sometimes add chopped walnuts, pecans and even a bit of coconut to the reserved crumbs for the topping. Amazing!!<\/p>","CommentId":18,"DateRated":"03\/15\/2011 13:22","GUID":"71450e53e0064d098b372965e22e2203","MemberId":985160,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"joperuzzi","SubmittedDate":"03\/15\/2011 13:22"},{"Comment":"

Excellent recipe.I have made these bars several times now. I have used different fruit flavors also: blueberry, apricot, and black raspberry. They have all turned out great. They are so easy to make and I usually have the ingrediants in the pantry.<\/p>","CommentId":21,"DateRated":"10\/17\/2009 21:43","GUID":"e9f7d7f82602411e97dc4ce113bec920","MemberId":4512691,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"christinagriffith","SubmittedDate":"10\/17\/2009 21:43"},{"Comment":"
