If you're a fan of cinnamon sugar and classic Snickerdoodle cookies, then you'll love these Snickerdoodle Bars. They're easy to make and perfect for any occasion or dessert table.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease with cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add in eggs and vanilla extract, beating well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until well combined.
- In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup granulated sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.
- Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the top, covering the dough completely.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
- Allow the bars to cool completely before slicing into squares. Serve and enjoy!
Tips:
- For an extra crispy crust, sprinkle a little bit of cinnamon sugar on the bottom of the baking pan before pressing in the dough.
- Store the Snickerdoodle Bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- Serve the bars with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra special treat.
