Snickerdoodle Bars (Print)

Cinnamon-sprinkled bars that are so soft and chewy. You’ll want to share or just grab one anytime for a sweet fix.

# Ingredients:

→ Cookie Dough

01 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
02 - 1 large egg
03 - 200 grams granulated sugar
04 - 113 grams unsalted butter, softened
05 - 0.5 teaspoon salt
06 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
07 - 190 grams all-purpose flour

→ Cinnamon Sugar Topping

08 - 25 grams granulated sugar
09 - 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

# Steps:

01 - Once you've sliced them up, just dig in and share them with friends or family.
02 - Let the pan of bars chill out until fully cooled, then cut them up however big or small you like.
03 - Pop the pan in the oven for about 25 to 30 minutes. When the sides turn golden and a toothpick comes out clean from the middle, you’re set.
04 - Mix together your cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl, then dust it evenly across the top of your dough.
05 - Use your hands or a spatula to push the dough into the edges of your prepared pan so the top is nice and level.
06 - Slowly add the dry bowl into your wet mix, blending until just barely pulled together and you’ve got a soft dough.
07 - Crack in the egg and splash in the vanilla, then stir into the butter mixture until it’s completely blended and smooth.
08 - Whip up the butter and sugar in a different bowl until things look airy and fluffy.
09 - Throw together your flour, baking powder, and salt in one bowl and whisk them up well, then leave it aside for now.
10 - Turn on your oven to 180°C. Lightly grease, or line with parchment paper, a 20×20-centimetre baking pan.

# Notes:

01 - You can keep these bars fresh in an airtight box on the counter for up to five days.
02 - Toss in just a pinch of cream of tartar if you want that classic tangy note snickerdoodles are known for.
03 - Makes a great sweet bite for bake sales, holidays, or just hanging out in the afternoon.
