I've noticed a lot of sugar cookie bar recipes, but they make a huge amount. Since I am always just baking for my husband and me, I came up with my own recipe in a small size. Instead of a cookie sheet pan, this fits in a 9x13 baking dish. Perfect for just a few.
Ingredients
1/2 C. Butter
1 C. Sugar
2 Eggs
2 tsp. Vanilla
2 1/2 C. Flour
1/2 tsp. Salt
1/4 tsp. Baking Soda
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a mixer cream butter, sugar, and vanilla. Beat eggs, and add. Mix well. Slowly add your dry ingredients until well incorporated.
Line a 9x13 baking dish with parchment paper and spread out your dough so it's about 1/4 inch thick.
Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the top is very lightly golden. Let cool and frost.
Cream Cheese Icing
1/2 C. Butter
4oz. Cream Cheese
1 tsp. Vanilla
Pinch of Salt
2-4 C. Powdered Sugar
1/2 Tbsp. Milk
Mix all ingredients together until creamy. Add food coloring if desired.
Is that a 9x13 dish or a 9x9 in your picture. It looks more like a 9x9. I'm making the recipe now. Looks yummy!
ReplyDeleteIt's a 9x9! Thanks for pointing that out! :)
