Blackberry Streusel...

Ok, felt like making something yummy to go with my tea,
and boy was this it!

Ingredients:
1 cup butter (2 sticks) softened
1 cup sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 egg
2 pkg Quaker instant oatmeal regular flavor (not pictured)
1 jar (10 oz) blackberry preserves

You will need an 8X8 Pyrex baking dish.
(preheat oven to 350)

Combine butter and sugar & beat at low speed, scraping the bowl often, until well blended.

Add flour, oatmeal & egg. Beat until mixture is crumbly, 2 - 3 minutes.

Reserve 1 cup crumb mixture for topping
& take remaining mixture & press into greased baking dish as evenly as possible.
Spread preserves to within 1/2 inch of edge of crust.

Crumble reserved mixture over preserves.

Bake for 45 minutes (until lightly browned)

Remove from oven & COOL COMPLETELY FIRST before cutting into bars.
(makes about 24 bars)

Enjoy!
