Raspberry bars (Hindbærsnitter)

Hindbærsnitter is a traditional dessert consisting of raspberry bars. These raspberry bars can be found in almost any café or bakery in the country, and they’re usually made with a combination of flour, raspberry jam, ground almonds, sugar, vanilla, butter, eggs, and milk.

The dough is made with a mixture of flour, almonds, sugar, vanilla, butter, and eggs. It’s wrapped in cling film and left to cool in the fridge for about half an hour. A bit later, the dough is rolled out, pricked with a fork, and spread with raspberry jam.

Another disk of dough is placed on top, pricked, and the surface is brushed with a glaze consisting of egg yolks and milk. The dessert is sprinkled with sugar and baked until golden brown. Once cooled, it’s cut into bars and served.
