BUTTER RUM BARS



Butter Rum Bars image

I have always loved Butter Rum flavor. Whenever I had a nickel or two, as a child, I would buy a tube of Butter Rum LIfe Savers! I tried to hide them to make them last, or my 3 sibs, would find out and then they disappeared in a hurry. Even if I was successful in hiding behind the hedge, I felt they were always gone too soon! ...

1 stick of butter, unsalted and softened
2 1/2 cups light brown sugar, packed
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3 extra large eggs
4 medium ripe bananas, mashed
2-3 Tbl rum (you can use just 1 if you don't want it real 'rummy' tasting)
1 tsp pralines 'n cream extract or vanilla bean extract
2 1/4 cups flour
1 stick butter, browned and cooled (I recommend using Plugra or a European butter)
8 ounces softened mascarpone
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 tsp rum
2-4 Tbl Heavy Cream
1/2 tsp vanilla bean extract
4 cups confectioner's sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • Line a 13×9" pan with foil leaving a 1" rim above (this will help with removing it from the pan later). Assemble the crust:
  • In a bowl, beat the butter with an electric mixer on high for a minute or until light and fluffy.
  • Add in the sugar and vanilla.
  • Beat until well combined, scraping the bowl down occasionally.
  • Add in the flour, cinnamon and salt just until combined. The mixture will be crumbly.
  • Dump the mixture in to the ungreased pan and press down evenly.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is a light brown.
  • Set the pan on a wire rack to cool while you make the filing. Make the filling:
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium for a minute.
  • Add in the brown sugar, baking soda and salt and beat until well combined, scraping the bowl occasionally.
  • Add in the eggs, bananas, rum and extract; mix well.
  • Add in the flour mix just until combined.
  • Remove from the mixer attachment and finish mixing the rest with a spoon. Don't overbeat, just mix until it's combined.
  • Spread over the crust and bake 40-45 minutes or until the center comes out clean with tested with a wooden skewer.
  • Cool on a wire rack until completely cooled. Make the frosting:
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment, add the browned butter, mascarpone and cream cheese. Beat on high for 2 minutes or until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.
  • Add in confectioner's sugar 1 cup at a time mixing on low.
  • Once all the sugar is in, add in the rum and extract and mix well.
  • Add in the heavy cream to thin it out just slightly to make it more of a spreadable consistency.
  • When the bars are cooled completely, grab the foil and lift the entire dessert out.
  • Place on a serving platter and gently remove the foil. I was able to just tug it in half and pull both sides out.
  • Spread the frosting on top. If you have extra...BONUS! This frosting stores beautifully in the fridge.
  • Using a clean, sharp knife, cut into squares.
