Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup white whole wheat flour, or all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
- Pinch of black pepper
Wet Ingredients
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cinnamon-Cardamom Sugar Topping
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F. Line an 8x8 baking with parchment paper and spray it with cooking spray.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, cream of tartar, salt and spices in a bowl and set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment or with a handheld mixer, beat the butter and sugar until smooth. Add in the egg and vanilla extract and beat until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl once.
- Slowly add in the dry ingredients and beat together on low speed just until combined.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared 8x8 baking pan.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon-cardamom sugar evenly over the top of the batter.
- Bake the bars for 18-20 minutes or just until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, don't overbake or they will be dry.

Notes
- The batter will be sticky. Spraying the back of a rubber spatula with cooking spray and using it to spread out the batter will make it easier.
