Recipe View 1 hrs Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. This will allow the filling to set properly. (60 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a touch of lemon zest to the berry filling.
Feel free to substitute other berries like blueberries, blackberries, or strawberries, or use a mix!
If you don't have shortening, cold butter, cut into small cubes, works well as a substitute.
For easier cutting, chill the bars in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes after they have cooled to room temperature.
Store leftover bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

    I had some trouble with the crust being too crumbly. Next time, I'll try chilling the dough for a bit before pressing it into the pan.

    I added a little lemon zest to the filling, as suggested, and it was a game-changer! So delicious.
