How to Make Cream Cheese Raspberry Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 15 oz (425g) yellow cake mix and 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, cut into cubes. Use a fork to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Reserve 1 cup of the crumb mixture for the topping. Set aside.
  4. Press the remaining crumb mixture into the bottom of a greased 13x9x2 inch baking pan. Firmly pat down.
  5. Spread 1/2 cup (113g) raspberry preserves evenly over the crumb crust.
  6. In a separate bowl, beat together 8 oz (227g) cream cheese (softened), 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar, 1/4 cup (30g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 large eggs until smooth and creamy.
  7. Stir in 1/4 cup (57g) raspberry preserves. Gently pour the cream cheese mixture over the raspberry preserve layer.
  8. Sprinkle the reserved crumb mixture evenly over the top.
  9. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is set. Insert a toothpick to ensure it comes out clean.
  10. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into 24-30 squares.
