SUGAR COOKIE BARS
These sugar cookie bars, which are adapted from "American Girl Cookies," are happiness in a 9-by-13 pan. The addition of cream cheese in the batter makes them very tender and slightly tangy, a perfect counterpoint to the sweet buttercream frosting. You can, and should, experiment with frosting colors and use sprinkles with abandon. Whatever you do, do not overbake these beauties. When testing for doneness, you want a few moist crumbs to cling to the toothpick.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly butter a 9-by-13-inch baking pan. Line the pan with parchment paper, running it up the two long sides of the pan and letting it extend past the rim by about 2 inches.
- Make the bars: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. In a large bowl with an electric mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and cream cheese on medium speed until well blended, about 1 minute. Add the granulated sugar and beat until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the egg and vanilla and beat on low speed until well combined, about 1 minute. Turn off the mixer and scrape down the bowl with a rubber spatula. Gradually add the flour mixture, mixing on low speed just until blended, about 1 minute.
- Using a spatula, scrape the dough into the prepared baking pan and spread it into an even layer. Bake just until the edges are starting to turn light golden brown, and a toothpick inserted in the middle has moist crumbs, 20 to 25 minutes. (Do not overbake! The bars should be quite moist, and almost slightly underbaked in the middle.) Remove the pan from the oven and set it on a wire rack. Let cool completely. When fully cooled, remove the bars from the pan using the overhanging parchment paper.
- Make the frosting: Place the butter in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat the butter on medium speed until creamy, about 1 minute. Add 1 cup confectioners' sugar, beating on low speed until fully combined, then repeat with remaining 1 cup confectioners' sugar. Add the 1 tablespoon milk or heavy cream, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, the vanilla, salt and food coloring, if using, and beat on medium speed until the frosting is light and fluffy, scraping down the sides halfway through, about 4 minutes. Add more milk if needed to thin out the mixture. Add lemon juice and vanilla to taste.
- Using a spatula, spread the frosting on top, then decorate with sprinkles, if using. Cut into 20 bars and serve.
Tips:
- Use room temperature ingredients: This will help your cookies bake evenly and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will incorporate air into the mixture and make your cookies light and tender.
- Gradually add the eggs one at a time: This will help prevent the cookies from curdling.
- Do not overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies in a preheated oven: This will help them bake evenly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
Conclusion:
These spring sugar cookie bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are soft, chewy, and full of flavor. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your cookies turn out perfect every time.
