Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 box Betty Crocker™ Gluten Free yellow cake mix
1/2 cup cold butter
2 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
3/4 cup seedless raspberry jam
1/3 cup sliced almonds
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 to 2 teaspoons water

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Spray bottom and sides of 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray.
  • In large bowl, place cake mix. Cut in butter with pastry blender or fork (or pulling 2 table knives through mixture in opposite directions) until mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Reserve 1 cup crumb mixture; press remaining crumbs in bottom of pan. Bake 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat cream cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla and egg with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth.
  • Spread cream cheese mixture evenly over partially baked crust. Spoon raspberry jam evenly over cream cheese mixture. Sprinkle reserved crumbs over top. Sprinkle with almonds.
  • Bake 35 to 40 minutes longer or until light golden brown. Cool about 30 minutes. Refrigerate until cooled completely, about 2 hours.
  • In small bowl, mix powdered sugar and enough water for desired drizzling consistency; drizzle over bars. For bars, cut into 6 rows by 4 rows. Store covered in refrigerator.
