Tips:

  • Choose the right cinnamon: Ground cinnamon is the most common type used in baking, but you can also use Saigon cinnamon (also known as Vietnamese cinnamon) for a more intense flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough, dense bars. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use fresh baking powder: Baking powder loses its potency over time, so be sure to use fresh baking powder for best results.
  • Don't overbake the bars: The bars are done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the bars cool completely: The bars will be easier to cut and will hold together better if you let them cool completely before frosting them.
  • Use a variety of toppings: In addition to the cream cheese frosting, you can also top the bars with chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or streusel.

Conclusion:

Jessica's Cinna Bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their gooey cinnamon filling and sweet cream cheese frosting, these bars are sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give these bars a try. You won't be disappointed!
