Berry Lemonade Bars
By: Shana Archibald
Ingredients
□ ½ cup butter (softened)
□ ⅔ cup honey
□ 2 eggs
□ 1 tablespoon lemon juice
□ ¼ teaspoon salt
□ Zest from half a lemon
□ ¾ cup flour
□ ¾ cup raspberries (or mixed berry blend,
which is what I used)
Glaze Ingredients
□ ¾ to 1 cup powdered sugar
□ 1 teaspoon raspberry jam
□ 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Step 2
Prepare an 8×8 square pan by spraying it with non-stick spray (or lining it with parchment paper).
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine butter, eggs, honey, lemon juice, salt and zest. Mix by hand or hand mixer.
Step 4
Add flour and mix until just combined.
Step 5
Add fresh raspberries (or mixed berries) and stir in by hand.
Step 6
Pour into prepared pan and spread into an even layer.
Step 7
Bake for around 25 minutes or until edges are brown and the middle is set. Do not over bake! You want the texture to be like a brownie.
Step 8
Let it cool.
Step 9
While the bars are cooling, combine the glaze ingredients and whisk together.
Step 10
Pour it over the cooled bars and spread out into an even layer on the top. Let the glaze set for at least 20 minutes.
Step 11
Cut into squares and serve.
Store at room temperature or in the refrigerator in an air tight container. Enjoy!
