How to Make Chocolate Strawberry Streusel Bars Fair Prize Winner

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs.
  4. Gradually add 2 cups all-purpose flour, mixing until just combined.
  5. Stir in 1 cup (6 ounces) semi-sweet chocolate chips (Hershey's recommended).
  6. Spread the chocolate mixture evenly into the prepared pan.
  7. Spread 1 cup strawberry jam evenly over the chocolate layer, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
  8. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour and 1/4 cup granulated sugar.
  9. Cut in 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  10. Stir in 1/2 cup (3 ounces) semi-sweet chocolate chips (Hershey's recommended).
  11. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the jam layer.
  12. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  13. Let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before cutting.
  14. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup powdered sugar, 1-2 tablespoons milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to desired consistency. Drizzle over cooled bars.
