My family loves these rich, sweet bars. The chocolate and raspberry jam go together so well. I make a lot of cookies and bars, but these special treats are my favorite. They're so pretty served on a platter. -Kathy Smedstad, Silverton, Oregon

Very tasty. The only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is that the layers don't stay together. The jam makes the crust slide away from the top chocolate layers. Otherwise they are delicious!

These are delicious tasting bars, however I did add an additional tablespoon butter or so to the crust ingredients since it just didn't stick together without it.If I WERE to make them again I would probably try cutting the bars before the chocolate glaze set. I cut them after chilling as the directions say, but the filling oozed everywhere and they weren't very pretty. Cutting them before it sets may not make it pretty either, but possibly better than what I had.

These were super tasty and easy to make. However, I wonder if I should grease my cooking pan slightly. The bottoms didn't come out quite as cleanly as what the picture indicates they should. Either way, they were fantastic -- and I'll definitely make them again.
