I don't know about you, but I sure love me some raspberries! Let me tell you, these bars are full of raspberry deliciousness! If you are a fan of raspberries and chocolate, you could even add some chocolate chips or white chocolate chips. Both options would be delectable! And if you are feeling really adventurous you could add a cream cheese layer!
Only a couple more months until the raspberry season comes again! Can't wait to make these bars again and maybe indulge with some homemade ice cream! Yummy!!
