2nd place winner submitted Jana Reynolds. I found this recipe in The Evening Times Holiday Cookbook newspaper. I have not tried this recipe, but I'm posting this for safe keeping. I plan to use Splenda for the sugar, and sugar free raspberry jam.
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup seedless raspberry jam
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons shortening
6 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Directions:
1. Bars: Combine flour and sugar, cut into shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press into a greased 9 x 9 -inch baking dish. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. Spread with jam, top with crumb topping. Bake 15 minutes. Cool cut into bars.
2. Crumb Topping: Mix all purpose flour, shortening, sugar, chopped pecans and vanilla together.
