White Chocolate Pomegranate Bars

Arrow


Recipe by Nechama Fiddle.

Directions

Prepare the Bars

Yields 20 bars.

1.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

2.

In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat sugar, margarine, cream cheese, and salt.

3.

Add in vanilla extract and egg yolk. Beat until smooth. 

4.

Reduce mixer to low and stir in flour. Gently add in arils and white chocolate and stir by hand.

5.

Gently press batter into a greased 9×13-inch pan. Bake for 40-45 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.

Variations:

To make this dessert non-dairy, use non-dairy margarine and a non-dairy cream cheese, like Tofutti.

Prepare the Frosting

1.

In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat margarine. Add in salt and one and a half cups confectioners’ sugar.

2.

Reduce mixer to low, and stir in pomegranate juice and food coloring, if using. (Food coloring will make the frosting a stronger pink.)

3.

Add in remaining confectioners’ sugar and beat on high until creamy. Spread onto cooled pomegranate bars.
