Raspberry White Chocolate Crumb Bars

This is an adaptation from a recipe that I found in the Nestle Classic Recipes book I bought decades ago. Wow, that sentence made me feel really old. The original recipe was tooth melting sweet - way too much for me! Once you try this recipe, you'll find it hard to believe the original could be any sweeter than this one but I find it a tastier treat than its predecessor. It is definitely a winner and an easy "Go-To" treat for a quick dessert, unexpected company or a girl's night in.
