      Title: Gooey Butter Bars
 Categories: Cookies, Snacks, Fruits, Desserts
      Yield: 24 Servings
 
  1 1/2 c  All-purpose flour
    1/4 c  Granulated sugar
    1/2 c  Cold butter
    2/3 c  Butter; softened
  1 1/4 c  Granulated sugar
    1/4 c  Light-colored corn syrup
      1 lg Egg
    1/2 ts Almond extract
      1 c  All-purpose flour
    2/3 c  Half & half
      3 c  Sliced and/or halved fresh
           - strawberries
      2 tb Honey
      1 ts Grated fresh ginger
 
  Set oven @ 350 degrees F.
  
  Line a 13" X 9" X 2" baking pan with parchment; set aside.
  For crust, in a medium bowl combine 1 1/2 cups flour and
  1/4 cup sugar. Using a pastry blender, cut in 1/2 cup
  butter until mixture resembles fine crumbs (mixture will
  be dry and crumbly). Pat firmly into prepared pan; set
  aside.
  
  In a large bowl beat softened butter with an electric
  mixer on medium-high speed for 30 seconds. Gradually beat
  in the 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar. Beat in corn syrup,
  egg, and almond extract just until combined. Alternately
  add the flour and half-and-half, beating after each
  addition until just combined after each addition (batter
  may appear slightly curdled). Spread into crust-lined
  baking pan.
  
  Bake about 30 minutes or until center is just set. Cool in
  pan on wire rack. Use parchment to lift from the pan; cut
  into bars.
  
  In a small bowl toss strawberries with honey and ginger.
  Spoon over bars before serving.
  
  Makes 24.
