Cooking Instructions
- 1
Line a 9×9” pan with foil and grease with butter. Cooking sprays are the devil..in my opinion. Preheat oven to 350°F
- 2
Prepare the crust by slowly mixing all the crust ingredients in a large bowl using a pastry cutter or fork. The mixture will be crumbly. Press the crust in the prepared pan and bake for 15 minutes.
- 3
If pears are ripe and soft - Core and diced. If pears are tougher you will need to par cook them by doing the following: place the diced pears in a medium saucepan. Fill the pan with water so that half the pears are covered. Cook over medium heat, bringing to a boil then simmering for about 5 minutes until the pears just start to turn semi-translucent. Drain very well.
- 4
Stir together pears, sugars, cinnamon and cornstarch
- 5
Mix the topping ingredients together just as you did for the crust. It will be crumbly.
- 6
Remove the hot crust from the oven. Sprinkle the pears carefully on top (make sure they are well drained first – do not add any of the extra liquid!), then sprinkle with the topping. Bake for an additional 35-45 minutes until the crumble topping starts to brown.
- 7
Cool in pan completely before using foil to lift out.
- 8
Slice and serve.

Cherry Rhubarb Cream Cheese Shortbread Dessert Bars Cherry Rhubarb Cream Cheese Shortbread Dessert Bars
This was a "Homemade Rhubarb Bar" recipe from BromaBakery.com that recommends to "Use room temperature ingredients — When making the cream cheese shortbread base, you need to let the butter and cream cheese come to room temperature before creaming them together. This will make the shortbread crust easier to mix and will give it a much better texture." And to "Chill the rhubarb bars — Just like lemon bars, these rhubarb bars need to cool completely in the fridge before you can cut into them. These bars need time to set properly, sorry to make you wait!" I used home grown fresh rhubarb stalks from our own backyard that I personally picked myself. I also added cherries and brown sugar to make the recipe "my own" a little bit. #onerecipeonetree #rhubarb #dessert #rhubarbdessert #dessertbars Chef Mommy Nessa -

Millionaire Bars (Caramel Shortbread Bars) Millionaire Bars (Caramel Shortbread Bars)
This caramel shortbread bar has been around a long time. In trying to find its origin it seems most likely to have started in Scotland when milk, eggs and sugar were in short supply. So the caramel was made with a sweetend condensed milk. There are a few variations on the recipe but all have a shortbread crust, then a soft caramel layer topped with melted chocolate. My version adds toffee bits and a blend of chocolate topping. The darker you cook the caramel the firmer it will become. My bars have a soft consistancy. These bars are really simple to make and are delicious! fenway -

This is definitely a recipe that I’ll be making again and again.The original recipe is from Taste of Home. However, I added a small amount of salt to the crust and also added some vanilla extract and nutmeg to the filling. The homemade whipped cream is optional, but highly recommended.#Thanksgiving #Holiday #Easy #Dessert Chris Gan -
