Berry Crumb Bars

First time baking a bar dessert and I'm pleased to say that this recipe turned out fantastic, although I did make a couple tweaks in the recipe after reading some of the other reviews here. For the crumble part of the recipe, I opted out of using 1 whole cup of white sugar and halved that with 1/2 cup of brown sugar. This made for a much denser base and top crumble that I was looking for.Also added a splash of vanilla and a good teaspoon of cinnamon to that along with an additional sprinkle on top.For the berry filling, I used 1 cup of frozen raspberries and 1 cup of blueberries. Adding that tablespoon of cornstarch definitely thickened up that blend quite nicely. Last but not least, I added a good tablespoon of lemon juice to the berries for a little extra flavor and tartness and the end result was just wonderful.Huge hit in our home and will definitely be making again in the future.

This recipe was a hit!! These weren’t overly sweet, and the berry flavor came out nicely. I topped mine with more berries and cinnamon for additional flavor.

It was a little tart and bland for my taste. I used raspberries. The only substitution I made to the original recipe was to use better instead of shortening and I cut the recipe in half. It's good, but it didn't wow me. If I attempt this again maybe I'll try different berries and add more sugar.
