Brown Sugar Bars

These brown sugar bars are moist, soft and a little chewy. They are simple to make and the brown sugar adds a soft, caramelized flavor.

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 350F/180C. Lightly grease and flour, spray or line with parchment paper an 8 inch square pan.
  2. In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and chopped nuts.
  3. In a large bowl or stand mixer beat the butter and sugar until creamy, approximately 3 -5 minutes, add the egg and vanilla and beat well. Add the dry ingredients mix just to combine. Spread evenly in the prepared pan, and bake 20-25 minutes, test with a toothpick for doneness. Let cool 10-15 minutes in the pan then move to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into squares. Top with a dollop of maple whipped cream if desired. Enjoy!

MAPLE WHIPPED CREAM

  1. Whip the cream until soft peaks form then slowly add the maple syrup, whip until stiff.

Notes

  • Store these brown sugar brownie bars covered in an airtight container for up to 4 days at room temperature. If you like bar cookies chilled, you can store them in the refrigerator for a few days longer. 
  • Yes! I love to freeze cookies and bars to enjoy for a snack or dessert recipe later. To freeze, cool completely then wrap bars in plastic wrap and place in a freezer safe container. They can stay frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw and enjoy!
