Frosted Sugar Cookie Bars

These bars have the great taste of sugar cookies, but none of the chilling of the dough and rolling out shapes. Just make up the dough and bake. These bars are soft and chewy. Recipe adapted from : Sallys Cookie Addiction Cookbook.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13" baking pan with parchment paper, leaving enough of an overhang to easily luft out the finished bars. Set it aside.
- 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt until thoroughly combined. Set it aside.
- 3
Using either a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or a hand mixer, beat the butter on med-high speed until creamy, 1-2 minutes. Then beat in the sugar for 1 minute, until fluffy. Beat in the egg, egg yolk and vanilla extract until combined. Scrape down the sides as needed.
- 4
On low speed, add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until just combined. The dough will be thick and sticky.
- 5
Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to lightly brown. The center will still look very soft.
- 6
Place the baking pan on a wire rack and let it cool completely. Once cool, lift out with the parchment paper and frost.
- 7
For the frosting, in a medium bowl using a hand mixer or a stand mixer, beat the butter until creamy, 1-2 minutes. Then add the rest of the frosting ingredients and mix until combined. You can add more cream if you'd like a thinner frosting. Frost the cookie bars before slicing them. You can also decorate with sprinkles after frosting if you'd like to. Use a large, sharp knife to slice them.
- 8
Store these in an airtight container for 3 or so days. Don't stack them, as the frosting will not harden and set much.

Double Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars Double Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars
We are all always hunting for that elusive beast, "the perfect chocolate chip cookie". I'm not going to tell you this recipe is perfect by any means, and as it's written it's "cookie bars", not straight up cookies - although I do have a note at the end for the option of making cookies. I make bars because as a busy mom spreading my dough out in a cake pan and throwing it into the oven is faster than making batch after batch of individual cookies, waiting for my cookie sheets to cool between each batch, and lugging the dough in and out of the fridge to ensure the cookies don't spread ridiculously.What I WILL tell you is that this recipe is my own compilation of my favorite aspects of a variety of cookie recipes I've tried over the years, and we think it's delicious. And be prepared for open gooey yummyness, cause that's ehat you're gonna get with these! StephieCanCook -
