It’s no secret that we are BIG dessert fans around here. The post-dinner sweet cravings hit just about every night and nothing satisfies quite like a baked good. Cookies, cakes, brownies, bars… I don’t discriminate. And when I’m in need of a treat, but not feeling a full on night of baking, this is one of the recipes I whip out! These Snickerdoodle Cookie Bars are pretty much a one-bowl recipe. All it takes is just mixing everything together then topping with that famous cinnamon sugar mixture that has us all hooked.
