How to make Snickerdoodle Cookie Bars
Step 1: Add the butter and sugar into a mixing bowl. Using a mixer, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy (2-3 minutes.) Add the eggs and vanilla and mix well. Mix the dry ingredients together in a separate bowl. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until fully incorporated.
Step 2: Line a 9×13 with parchment paper and set aside. Scoop the dough into the prepared 9×13 pan. (Tip: Split the dough into 6, 1/2 cup balls to make pressing the dough into even layers easier.)
Step 3: Press the dough out evenly into the pan.
Step 4 & 5: Sprinkle the topping evenly over the dough.
Baking Instructions
Step 6: Bake in an oven preheated to 350 degrees for 20-25 mins. Do not overbake. The edges should be lightly brown.
Step 7: Using the parchment paper, lift the bars out of the baking pan and allow the Snickerdoodle Cookie Bars to cool completely before cutting into individual pieces.
