Expert Cooking Tips
- Make sure to press the mixture firmly into the pan to help the bars hold together.
- Let the bars cool completely before cutting to prevent them from falling apart.
Step 1
Gently heat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing a 13x9-inch baking dish so nothing sticks. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the shortening and brown sugar until the mixture is nice and smooth. Beat in the egg, then stir in the hot coffee.
Step 2
In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add these dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Gently fold in the raisins and chopped nuts, making sure they’re evenly distributed.
Step 3
Spread the batter evenly in your prepared pan, then pop it into the oven. Bake for about 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the bars cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
