Instructions
Blackberry Pie Bars
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 baking pan with butter or non-stick cooking or baking spray.
Using a mixer, cream together the butter, sugar, and salt.
Next, add the vanilla extract into the bowl. Then add your eggs, one at a time, mixing in between each addition (*see note). If your mixture starts to curdle, add a tablespoon or two of flour).
Mix in the flour until the dough is combined, making sure not to overmix. Save 1 cup of the dough for the topping and set it aside.
In your greased pan, spread the dough in an even layer over the bottom. Afterward, top the dough with the blackberry pie filling. Drop the 1 cup of dough that you had set aside in rounded spoonfuls over the top of the pie filling layer.
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until the cobbler bars are a golden brown color and the topping is no longer doughy. Remove the pan from the oven and set it on a wire cooling rack. Allow the bars to cool completely before topping them with icing.
Vanilla Glaze
In a small bowl combine the confectioners' sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla. Add more cream or sugar as needed until you reach a good consistency for drizzling.
Once the bars are completely cooled, drizzle the glaze over the top. Then you can cut them and serve or allow the glaze to set before cutting.
Notes
If you're out of canned blackberry pie filling, try my easy homemade blackberry pie filling!
I love the combination of blackberry and lime. If you have a lime around, zest it and sprinkle it over your glaze!
Store any leftover blackberry pie bars in a sealed container on the counter for up to two days (without the glaze). If using any dairy-based icing or glaze, you must refrigerate your leftover bars.
To freeze your blackberry pie bars, don't add the icing until after they have been defrosted. Wrap them tightly in foil and transfer and place them into a freezer bag. Thaw overnight in the fridge and serve within 3 months of freezing.
