Description

Apple jelly and butterscotch chips unite in this bar cookie recipe.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups self-rising flour
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup white sugar
2/3 cup brown sugar
1 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup apple jelly
1/4 cup chopped cashews
1 (11 ounce) package butterscotch chips

Directions

1 Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease the bottom of a 9 inch square baking dish.
2 Mix the flour, oats, white sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl. Cut the butter into the flour mixture until the mixture is crumbly. Set aside 3/4 cup of the mixture and press the rest into the bottom of the prepared dish. Spread the top with the apple jelly.
3 Stir the reserved flour mixture and the cashews together in a bowl; sprinkle over the apple jelly. Scatter the butterscotch chips over the cashew mixture.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown; 30 to 35 minutes. Allow to cool completely before cutting into bars.
