Frosted Sugar cookies bars

Uncategorized Leave a comment

Instead of making cutout cookies, I opted for sugar cookie bars.    The recipe is easy, it makes thick bars, with the texture of a fudgy brownie. A simple vanilla frosting, with unicorn graffiti sprinkles in the bars and on top of the frosting.

Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount.   Also, preheat your oven before baking. 

  • Bars ingredients list
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tbs vanilla
  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • Unicorn graffiti

Directions – preheat oven to 350 degrees.   Line an 8×8 pan with parchment paper.  Set aside.  In a bowl, cream butter and sugar.  Add eggs and vanilla.  Blend in flour and salt.   Stir in unicorn graffiti.   Even spread into prepared pan.   Bake 15 minutes, no longer.   Cool completely.

  • Frosting ingredients
  • 1,/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 to 4 tbs milk

In a bowl, cream butter and vanilla.  Blend in powdered sugar.   Add enough milk to get the consistency you want.  Sprinkle unicorn graffiti on top.  

Store in covered container.  Thanks so much for stopping by.
