this is a to die for confection, really easy, I just adore when recipes are easy and turn out well each time, I don't have Martha's staff and I tire easy these days, so it has to work bang on right away. Many have requested this one so here it is.
bake two different kinds of squares in two different pans at the same time by doubling the crumb ingredients and using two different kinds of jam for the fillig. Apricot, cherry, strawberry or pineapple wpuld be a delicious alternative to raspberry.
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup lightly packed brown sugar
3/4 cup butter
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 1/4 cups raspberry jam
1/2 cups sliced almonds

Chocolate Marshmallow Balls
A chocolate lover's fantasy comes true in these quick to fix confections that don't need baking. Balls of creamy chocolate studded with tiny marshmallows are rolled in a coconut coating. They keep several weeks so you can prepare them early.
4 oz cream cheese
2 tbsp milk
2 cups sifted icing sugar
2 oz semi sweet chocolate chips melted ( microwave works great)
3 cups miniature marshmallows
shredded coconut
wax paper
Beat cheese and milk until smooth. Gradually add icing sugar and chocolate. Mix well, add marshmallows, stirring to coat with chocolate mixture. Drop by small spoonfuls into
coconut, Toss until coated Place in pan lined with wax paper. Chill until firm. Store covered in refrigerator. Makes about 50 balls
I haven't tried these myself yet, but they sound yummmy and I am thinking I could add some chopped walnuts to these and they would be awesome.
