Huckleberry Bars

I love Huckleberries!!!!  I can't get them here but I have jars of homemade jam from family.  I have found yet another fabulous resource for new recipies.....

  Just Get Off Your Butt and Bake!!

Wow!! So many recipies with so many beautiful pictures!!

Their recipie for Magic Rasberry Cookie Bars sounded just too good!!

I substituted the Huckleberry Jam for the Rasberry.  I also added chocolate chips to the top because everything tastes better with chocolate!!

The recipe: 

2 Cups Graham Cracker Crumbs

1/4 Cup Sugar

1/2 cup margarine or butter, Melted

1 can (14 oz.) sweetened Condensed Milk

1 1/4 cups Raspberry jam or Preserves

 

1 1/3 cups flaked coconut  ( didn't use )

Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter in small bowl.  Press into the bottom of a 13x9 in pan. pour 12/ of the milk over crust.  Top with nuts, then spoon Jam over the whole thing.  Top with remaining milk.  This is where I omitted the coconut flakes and sprinkled chocolate chips on top.

Bake at 350 for 25-30 min.  Take a butter knife to the edges of the pan when it comes out of the oven.  Let cool completely before cutting.  So Yummy!!
