Delightful is one of the best ways to describe these raspberry dessert squares with their mildly sweet taste and crumbly crust. If you prefer natural, fruit flavours for dessert rather than overly sweet treats, then this recipe is a great option.

Delightful Dessert Squares Made with Raspberries
Aside from making delicious raspberry jam, I personally don’t think we use raspberries enough in our baking. But then again, I can’t get enough of simply munching on them right off the bush, which is delightful in itself.

This dessert is baked in a deep baking pan and then cut into squares to enjoy while still warm or after it’s cooled completely. Serve the squares alongside a scoop of vanilla icecream to enhance the flavor.
