It’s the 4th of July! My holiday weekend is going to be very low key since I just got back from vacation, but I wanted to do something festive so I didn’t feel like a complete party pooper. So I made these red, white and blue bars this morning in less than an hour.
Get in my Independence Day belly!
They’re so easy to make y’all. Prepare a box of Krusteaz Raspberry Bar Mix as directed on the package, but right after you spread the raspberry filling over the hot dough….
…sprinkle on 1/2 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries. Then add the remaining crumble over the top and bake as directed.
You’ll end up with red, white and blue bars that make a perfectly delicious patriotic dessert!
Happy 4th of July, everyone!
