How to Make Easy Raspberry Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to lift out the finished bars.
  2. Make the crust: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Press the crust evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  4. Make the filling: In a medium bowl, gently combine the thawed raspberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
  5. Pour the raspberry filling over the crust.
  6. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the topping is lightly golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  7. Let the bars cool completely in the pan.
  8. While the bars are cooling, prepare the topping: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  9. Once the bars are completely cool, pour the topping evenly over the bars.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before cutting and serving. Enjoy!
