EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Use orange juice instead of the water to give these bars a nice flavor boost.

Add a cinnamon design. Dip small cookie cutters into cinnamon, and press lightly into frosting.

Sprinkle chopped nuts over frosted bars.

For a more cakelike bar, use 3 eggs and 1/3 cup water.

Turned out Great! I didnt use rasins in my bars but were fantastic anyways! I only baked the bars for about 18 min, if I would have left them in for the whole 20-25 they would have definatley been too dry. i cut them into shapes for halloween so it made it pretty fun and snack sized.

OK.....but kind og crumbly... I used applesauce in place of oil, so I don't know if that caused it, but I wouldn't make again. Too small for the calories too!
