Raspberry Crumble Bars

I discovered this recipe recently in a Better Homes & Gardens collection of Christmas goodies. It's the perfect dessert to make with kids... utterly delicious and couldn't be more simple. Serve with a glass of ice cold milk.

Raspberry Crumble Bars

1 package yellow or white cake mix
2 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats
3/4 cup butter, melted
1 12 oz. jar seedless raspberry jam
1 tablespoon water

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Line a 13 x 9 pan with foil; grease foil.

Mix cake mix and oats. Stir in melted butter until crumbly. Press 1/2 of the mixture evenly onto the prepared pan.

Combine jam and water in a small bow. Spread jam over crumb mixture within 1/2-inch of the edges. Spread remaining crumb mixture over jam.

Bake for approximately 20 to 25 minutes or until golden. Cool before serving. Place waxed paper between bars before storing.
