CINNAMON COOKIE BARS
I like this recipe because it is so simple to make. I read that cinnamon is very good for you. I found a cinnamon cookie here, but I didn't like that it didn't hold together. I took a recipe of mine and adapted it to the Cinnamon Cookie I wanted. If you choose to glaze this cookie, warm the frosting in the microwave so that it can be spread thinly.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Freshly ground coffee and freshly grated cinnamon will give your coffee bars the best flavor.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the coffee bars tough.
- Bake the coffee bars until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the coffee bars are cooked through.
- Let the coffee bars cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting to set properly.
