  8. 2 tsp ground cinnamon (for topping)

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

  • Top with Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl, mix together the ground cinnamon and granulated sugar. Sprinkle this mixture over the dough.
  • Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  • Cool and Cut: Allow the cookie bars to cool in the pan before cutting them into squares or bars.
  • Serve: Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can adjust the amount of cinnamon in the topping based on your personal preference.
  • If you prefer a chewier texture, you can slightly underbake the bars, keeping them soft and gooey in the center.
  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg to the cinnamon sugar topping.
