Preparation Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x9-inch baking dish with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a food processor, combine all-purpose flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Pulse in cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, mix the egg yolk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract; add this mixture to the processor until crumbly.
- Press the mixture firmly into the prepared pan, prick with a fork, and then freeze for 20-30 minutes. Bake for 35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
- While the crust bakes, prepare the mango curd. Bloom the unflavored gelatin powder in cold water according to package instructions.
- In a double boiler over simmering water, whisk together softened butter and granulated sugar until creamy.
- Gradually incorporate egg yolks, mango puree, salt, and fresh lemon juice. Stir continuously for 15-25 minutes, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
- Remove from heat, mix in the melted gelatin, then strain through a fine sieve to remove any lumps.
- Once the crust has cooled completely, spread the mango curd evenly over the cooled crust.
- Drop spoonfuls of warmed raspberry jam in random spots atop the mango curd. Swirl the raspberry jam into the curd using a knife or skewer.
- Refrigerate your assembled Raspberry Mango Bars for about 4-6 hours or overnight. Once firm, slice into squares with a sharp knife.

Notes
For neat slices, dip your knife in hot water and wipe it clean between cuts. This trick saves you from ragged edges and keeps presentation pristine.
