Snickerdoodle Bars

Snickerdoodle Bars are so amazing they are soft, chewy, topped off with yummy cinnamon sugar mixture, and taste just like a snickerdoodle cookie but even better. So simple to make, no need to make the cookies with a mixer these can be made in minutes.

These bars are perfect for a snack at the house, parties, etc. But beware you will fall in love with these and make them over and over again, just like I do since I saw this recipe. Love them and I am sure you will enjoy them too..

Ingredients For The Batter:

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 large egg
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Pinch of salt

For Sprinkling On Top:
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon

Directions:

1. For The Batter - Preheat oven to 350 degrees then line an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray then set aside.
2. In a large, microwave-safe bowl melt the butter, about 1 minute. 
3. Let the butter cool slightly because the egg will scramble. Add the egg, sugars, vanilla, and whisk until smooth.
4. Add the flour, cream of tartar,  salt and stir until just combined, don't over mix.
5. Pour the batter into prepared pan, smoothing the top lightly to make sure evenly distributed. 
6. For Sprinkling - In a small bowl combine the sugar, cinnamon, and stir.
7. Using a small spoon, evenly sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture over the prepared pan. 
8. Bake for about 24 to 25 minutes, or until done. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out. After baking place pan on top of a wire rack to cool for at least 20-30 minutes before slicing and serving. Keep bars in a airtight at room temperature for up to 1 week.
