Recipe- Crispy And Delicious Raspberry Bars

The fact that I’m a chocoholic is known to everyone who knows me. I mean I can live on chocolates forever and will probably not need anything else. Yes that is how much I love it, I think chocolate runs in my blood! No kidding! When I started baking I wanted to add chocolate in everything and I still do because there’s nothing quite like it in my opinion. I am always looking out for different varieties of chocolate candies to munch on or to bake with.
Ingredients
1.25 cups quick oats
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup unsalted butter softened
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup M&M’s Crispy divided
1/2 cup raspberry jam seedless
Method
* Line a 8x8 square pan with aluminium foil with overhanging edges. Spray the aluminium foil with non-stick spray so that it's easy to peel off the bars once they have baked. Set aside.
* Preheat oven to 350 F degrees.
* In a bowl whisk together quick oats, all purpose flour, baking powder and salt.
* Also add the brown sugar and 1/4 cup of M&M’s® Crispy. Mix everything together.
* Add in the softened unsalted butter. Use a fork or your fingers to mix in the butter completely till there are no chunks.
* Mix the butter till it's well incorporated with the mixture and the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.
* Dump the mixture over the prepared baking pan, reserve 1/2 cup to add later on. Press it with your hands or using the back of your spoon till mixture is tightly packed.
* Top the oatmeal layer with seedless raspberry jam. I microwaved the jam a little to make it easier to spread.
* Now top the jam layer with the 1/2 cup of oatmeal mixture that we had set aside earlier.
* Press the remaining 1/2 cup of M&M’s Crispy on the top most layer.
* Bake at 350 F degrees for around 30 minutes or till light golden brown from top.
* Let the bars cool completely before cutting into pieces.
