Chocolate Raspberry Nut Bars

I was recently at a bridal shower and one of the guests brought these as part of the snack table. I had to find out immediately who'd made them and where they got the recipe. They were absolutely delicious. Judy added swirled morsels for just a little more "umph." Wow! They were over the top..

Chocolate Raspberry Nut Bars

A good change of pace dessert. Also good with strawberry or peach jam. I alternate nuts between almonds, pecans, & walnuts..

Chocolatey Raspberry Crumb Bars

Nice combination of flavors and appearance. I made this recipe twice, original recipe I found to sweet for myself but co-workers loved it! The second time I added quick oats to the crumb mixture and a combination of swirled white chocolate morsels and white chocolate morsels. Bars still enjoyed by family and friends..
