I used the frozen berries I had on hand (raspberries and strawberries) and ended up pulsing the filling ingredients in the food processor to make it easier to spread. I wonder if you could use canola oil or anything else as a substitute for butter---has anyone tried it? These bars turned out great.

(FWIW, I often take cookbook's suggestions of expiration dates literally, as I did in this case. It's not that I don't think they'd last longer, I just figure that since I'm not an expert in food safety that they might know something I don't. At home, however, I don't care what the date is. If something looks, smells and tastes good, as far as I'm concerned, it's still actually good.)

They are a lot of work to only be good for 2 days! I plan on freezing some of mine then, but if there is a way to make them last longer I would love to know, thanks so much!

They were fantastic, though the kids thought they were too tart. I will try making them with another fruit - maybe blueberries or strawberries and less lemon juice. I also baked them for an additional 20 min - this was key to making them stay together as the filling turned jammy and held everything together. This morning they were still crisp, not soggy at all.
