Like a healthy linzertorte, a traditional Austrian pastry, minus the top crust, but still equally impressive-looking and delicious. These bars are the perfect take-with-you dessert, and you'll love serving them to guests after a dinner party. They feature both frozen raspberries as well as red raspberry preserves, which nicely complement the almond extract. The bottom crust comes together quickly in the food processor with typical pantry ingredients, while the fruity filling takes just minutes to make in a small saucepan. Dust some powdered sugar on top of the cooled bars for the final, sweet, luxurious touch. This recipe also works well with chopped fresh apricots, blueberries, or mixed berries, too.
