Wendy says
I made these for my book club yesterday and they were delicious but I thought I would never hear these words come out. Of my mouth, “They were too sweet!”
Joan says
Would love to make this, but when do you add the jam and how long do you bake it?
Stephanie Brubaker says
Hi Joan! The complete recipe can be found here http://backforseconds.com/chocolate-raspberry-magic-bars/2/ I hope you enjoy these bars! 🙂
Yvonne says
These look amazing!!! Can’t wait to try them but do you use sweetened or unsweetened coconut?
Stephanie Brubaker says
I use sweetened because I always have some on hand, but the recipe is certainly sweet enough to use unsweetened coconut. Hope you enjoy them, Yvonne!
Yvonne says
Thank you for the feedback. These are gona be amazing!!!!
Danielle says
Hi, I’m in the UK and we don’t have such a thing as “yellow cake mix” here. Is this just a vanilla sponge mix?
Stephanie Brubaker says
Yes, sounds like the same thing. Alternately, you could make a shortbread crust and it would be just as good!
Cathy says
Can you use sugar free jam to cut some of the sweetness?
Stephanie Brubaker says
Yes! 🙂
Charlotte says
If the recipe was made without coconut what could you replace it with? Would you double nuts or chips, or simply leave out coconut, just not sure about the ratio.
Stephanie Brubaker says
Hi Charlotte! I would add an extra 1/2 cup of chips and nuts to replace the coconut. Or add 1 cup of any other topping you like! Enjoy!
Leticia says
Would the flavors work using a lemon cake mix? I was thinking of switching chocolate chips for white chocolate…
Stephanie Brubaker says
I think that would be delicious!!
