Gooey little squares of goodness .... that's what you will have after you whip up a batch of these crowd pleasers. Aunt Sharon seemed to be able to pull these lovelies out of thin air and they disappeared in the bat of an eye if you weren't quick to scoop one up. While many people have had butter tart squares, Aunt Sharon had a variation that was all her own .... she added raspberry jam to the recipe one time and the rest is history. You can make these squares the traditional way but why wouldn't you add that extra little kick of raspberry**?
Ingredients - Base
1/2 cup of soft butter
1 cup of flour
2 tbsp white sugar
Kraft Raspberry Jam
Mix and press into a greased 8x8 pan and bake at 350 for about 15 minutes or until the base turns a light golden brown.
**Once cooled spread enough raspberry jam to cover the base and set aside. I suppose any raspberry jam will do but Kraft is best and it's what Aunt Sharon used**
Ingredients - Topping
2 eggs
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 1/4 cups brown sugar
3 tbsp of flour
1 tsp vanilla
Mix ingredients together and pour over the base
Bake at 350 for approximately 10-15 minutes or until the center is no longer jiggly. Let cool and enjoy!!!
